North Star Merywen Strawberry and Rose Gin 40% abv 50cl A pink gin with style and perfect for a summer's day. Distilled in extremely small batches on a 30 litre copper still, Merywen Gin is distilled with great attention to detail. The specific choice of natural ingredients used were inspired by years of exploring the lanes by bike and foot. Merywen is the Welsh word for juniper berries, the principle flavour of gin which can be found growing wild in protected areas of North Wales. Botanicals including eithin (gorse) and grug (heather) are hand-picked from the blossoming hedgerows that surround our rural distillery, combined and distilled with pure grain spirit and local unfiltered water from the foothills of the Welsh mountains. Nothing is used that cannot be found locally. We say it is exquisitly crafted and packaged, each bottle is hand written with bottle number, and we think it is just amazing - beautiful aromatic botanicals evident from first uncorking and delicious deep flavours that linger.
