Whitley Neill Parma Violet Gin, 70 cl

Product Information

The blend of botanicals used for their gins consists of juniper, coriander, orris root, angelica, orange peel, licorice, and a few others. They infuse their Classic Gin with violets to try to resemble the Parma Violets sweets as closely as possible. Violet gins are a lot less juniper-forward than standard gins and are also without a doubt a lot sweeter than a more basic gin like a London dry gin. As we mentioned above, this type of gin is infused with flowers from the violet family. Infusion with violet flowers creates a very distinguishable scent and flavor and often this infusion also leads to the violet hue that violet gins have. Aside from that, gin distillers are free to add anything they’d like. If you’re interested in an explanation of the most commonly used botanicals, we’ve written a whole article about that right here. The brand Boë is named after Franz de la Boë, who to some stories is believed to be the inventor of the spirit we call gin.
