Cygnet Gin

Cygnet Gin

Shwmai. Today we’re back in Swansea with the amazing @cygnet_distillery
Cygnet Gin embodies every milestone in Swansea’s rich history. Beginning with the swan, an eight hundred year old mascot. Like a swan in a duck pond, the gin glides through the mouth with elegant grace, gracefully veiling an underlying potency that exhibits itself in as much complexity as the exquisite bird from which it draws its name

Cygnet Gin is produced in Swansea, with a recipe inspired in part by the attempt to cure cholera by two local folks in the mid-1800s. Master distiller Dai Wakely uses a selection of botanicals from all over the world (which is rather apt, considering Swansea’s history as a port for incoming good from across the globe), including juniper, lemon peel, lime peel, pink grapefruit peel, orange peel, liquorice root, orris root, coriander seed, angelica root, cardamom seed, almond and chamomile
