Plymouth Gin
Plymouth Gin
Plymouth Gin is a type of gin that is produced only in Plymouth, England. The gin has been in production since 1793 at the Black Friars Distillery. Plymouth Gin has a unique, slightly fruity flavor and a full-bodied earthiness compared to other types of gin.
History
Plymouth Gin has a rich history that dates back to the late 18th century. The gin was first distilled in 1793 at the Black Friars Distillery. The distillery is the oldest working gin distillery in England and it has been the only place where Plymouth Gin is made. The gin was very popular in the 19th century, especially among the Royal Navy. It was also the gin of choice for the first Dry Martini.
Production
The production of Plymouth Gin involves a single batch distillation process. The gin is made from a blend of seven botanicals: juniper, coriander seed, dried sweet orange peels, cardamom, angelica root, and orris root. The exact proportions of these botanicals are a closely guarded secret. The botanicals are steeped in pure grain alcohol overnight to release their flavors. The mixture is then distilled in a traditional copper pot still.
Taste
Plymouth Gin has a distinctive taste that sets it apart from other gins. It is less dry than London gin, with a slightly fruity, full-bodied flavor. The taste is smooth and aromatic, with a hint of citrus. It is often enjoyed in cocktails, especially in a classic Gin and Tonic or a Dry Martini.
Legal Status
Plymouth Gin had a Protected Geographical Indication within the European Union until 2015. This meant that the gin could only be produced in Plymouth. However, this status was lost in 2015, and now the gin can be produced anywhere, although the Black Friars Distillery remains the only place where it is made.
