Rock Rose Gin is launching a Summer Cocktail Box. The mini-hamper, priced at only £20 (+P&P) from https://www.dunnetbaydistillers.co.uk/shop/ contains just about everything you need to create Rock Rose Lemon Thyme Collins cocktails – perfect for basking in the sun. The Summer Box launches on 1 June 2021.
The box includes the delicious Lemon Thyme Liquid Garnish (which you will use time and time again, if you pardon the pun); two Rock Rose Summer Edition 5cl miniatures; Sugar Sachets, Soda, Tonic Water, and even fresh lemons. There are extra treats as well: two small Mrs Tilly’s Fudge bars.
All you need to add is ice, a sprig of lemon or common thyme, and, of course, sunshine or a warm evening.
This is the perfect gift for birthdays, hosts, anniversaries or just to say ‘hello’ again after this long period of lockdowns.
Rock Rose Summer Edition Gin tasting notes
- Lemon balm, Lemon Verbena, and Lemon Thyme: Picked from the Distillery’s own garden, these are the hero botanicals of the summer edition. They give the gin a fresh lemon scent and the lemon thyme delivers a savoury, herbal edge.
- Clover: Sweet and earthy, bringing a warmth to the gin.
- Meadowsweet: Light and floral, bringing out a sweet, honey nose in the spirit.
