Hendrick's Sunspell Gin is a captivating, limited-edition expression from Master Distiller Lesley Gracie’s "Cabinet of Curiosities" series, released as an exclusive for global travel retail (Duty Free). Inspired by the mesmerizing magic hour of a coastal Scottish sunset over the island of Ailsa Craig, this vibrant expression infuses Hendrick’s signature foundation of 11 botanicals, crisp cucumber, and red rose with a radiant burst of warm citrus and harmonious spices. The result is an exceptionally refreshing yet beautifully comforting gin that captures the serene warmth of a day's end.
Food Pairing: Pairs wonderfully with citrus-glazed duck breast, spiced chicken skewers, or a charcuterie board featuring sharp cheddar and dried orange slices. It is also an exquisite companion for sweet desserts like spiced apple tarts, carrot cake, or orange-infused dark chocolate truffles.
TASTING NOTES Crystal clear and brilliantly transparent. It features a beautifully balanced, smooth, and medium-bodied mouthfeel that delivers an initial wave of bright freshness before revealing a deeper, comforting texture.
NOSE A radiant and enticing bouquet where the familiar green juniper and crisp cucumber are beautifully uplifted by prominent aromas of zesty sweet orange, candied lemon peel, and a delicate backdrop of warm baking spices and soft rose water.
PALATE Complex, layered, and bright. The entry floods the palate with a lively burst of warm, sun-ripened citrus and aromatic spices like coriander and subtle cardamon. The mid-palate introduces a grounding layer of earthy juniper, transitioning smoothly into Hendrick's signature cooling touch of fresh cucumber.
FINISH Long, refreshing, and simultaneously warming. The vibrant citrus notes gently give way to a clean close marked by lingering herbal spice, a whisper of floral rose, and a faint peppery sting.
SERVE Superb in sun-drenched cocktails. Enjoy a "Sunspell & Tonic" poured over plenty of ice with premium tonic water and garnished with three thin rounds of cucumber, or mix a "Sunspell Sipper" by combining it in a rocks glass with crisp apple juice, an orange twist, and a slice of cucumber.
