The Mediterranean influences the historic lands surrounding an intercontinental sea that stretches from the Atlantic Ocean in the west to the Near East, separating Europe from Africa, touching the coasts of 22 countries. It has been called the birthplace of Western civilisation, an inspiring melting pot of diverse cultural influences. From the Strait of Gibraltar in the west, to the shores of Turkey in the east and north to south between Croatia and Libya we discover a vibrant fusion of aroma, flavours and traditions.
From Egyptian spices to Italian herbs and Spanish citrus, join us on a Mediterranean journey through our symphony of flavours; combining citrus, herbal, spices and floral elements that entice you to discover the diverse and exciting Mediterranean region.
Symphony of Flavour
Silent Pool Gin’s Mediterranean expression draws inspiration from the captivating fragrances of Mediterranean perfumes, seeking to encapsulate the essence of this timeless region.
Handcrafted with juniper blessed by the soft breath of the Mediterranean, this gin is bursting with fresh notes of lime citrus combined with aromatic floral layers of chamomile, olive leaf and the subtle richness of Spanish Orange Blossom Honey .
Nose
A clean, distinct aroma characterised by vibrant lime and citrus underpinned by a zesty, peppery body. Intriguing florals offer a unique bridge between the bright citrus and pine-rich juniper in this complex Mediterranean gin.
Palate
Mouth-wateringly smooth, the enhanced citrus is fortified by elevated floral notes from chamomile
and olive leaf. Spearmint and lemon verbena lend a sherbet quality that marries the floral with tangy, fresh lime. Depth and complexity present as the profile moves into a warm peppery spice with a light heat. The mouthfeel is enhanced through the considered distillation of Spanish Orange Blossom Honey .
Finish
The long and elegant finish is clean cut and decidedly moreish.
Dry, citrus and impressively aromatic with a delicate warmth that demands further exploration.
Citrus Harmony
The inclusion of black lime infuses intense citrusy and tangy notes, complementing the zesty fragrance of Portuguese lime leaves. Together, they create a vibrant and refreshing citrus profile reminiscent of Mediterranean orchards.
Herbal Elegance
The olive leaves contribute an herbal character, intertwining with the earthy essence of Moroccan coriander seeds. This combination evokes the aromatic allure of Mediterranean landscapes, where olive groves and herb-laden gardens abound.
Musky Complexity
Adding a touch of sophistication, ambrette seeds produced by the hibiscus plant introduce musky undertones that intermingle seamlessly with the overall composition. This creates a complex and alluring gin, reminiscent of the musky notes found in Mediterranean-inspired perfumes.
