Copperhead Gibson Edition Gin, 50 cl

In 2018 world-renowned bartender Marian Beke, owner of the Gibson bar in London, created Copperhead the Gibson Edition. Inspired by the classic cocktail Gibson Martini this edition is a unique savoury style of gin, thanks to the immense flavour palette. Added to the original 5 Copperhead botanicals are not less than 13 carefully selected spices traditionally used in pickling. These ingredients, among which are mace, pepper, cassia, bay leaf, ginger, allspice, fennel and dill seeds are joined by just a touch of eight-year-old Genever to complete this smooth and complex taste. It is the summer of 2013 when Yvan Vindevogel, pharmacist-entrepreneur, discovers an interesting link between the mighty powers of the liquor we call Gin and his profession as a pharmacist. There, on a quiet Sunday morning, reading the paper with a cup of tea, he stumbles upon an article about the fascinating story of Gin. Intrigued by the ancient powers and the medicinal history of this drink, he sets himself a new purpose for this lifetime: as a pharmacist in mind & heart, he would bring this experience of mixing and experimenting with flavours, characteristics and herbal extracts in Gin to the people. He would give them the chance to be their own Alchemist, to create their own ‘Elixir of Life’. He would name it Copperhead Gin.The juniper becomes deeper and earthier among aromatic fennel and a broad but crisp herbal bitterness
