Its common to see whiskies by independent bottlers on the market, but not common to see gins. Enter That Boutique-y Gin Company as the world’s first independent gin bottler! Coming all the way from Thornbridge, Kent in the UK, our Gin Drop subscribers get to explore this unique gin bottler and shake up as a Margatini (the margarita for gin lovers)!
That Boutique-y Gin - Finger Lime Gin, Kent UK
That Boutique-y purchases gins from both well established and up-and-coming producers, then uses vacuum stills to retain the freshness and vibrancy of their choice botanicals, bringing about new creations. This all happens at Boutique-y HQ in Thornbridge, Kent.
About the gin.
When graphic designer Grace J Ward is handed a brief for a new That Boutique-y release she gets to work creating a visual representation of what you’ll find in the bottle. If her label of the Finger Lime Gin is anything to go off of, you’d know to expect a plethora of juniper and a whopping hit of beautiful Australian Finger Limes. But don’t let the label fool you into thinking this is a two trick pony, alongside those bright citrus and London Dry-style notes wafts florals, spice, a bit of mint, and a hint of cream!
