Brescome Barton Adds New U.K. Gin Import

By July 30, 2020Connecticut, Top News

Whitley Neill Gin is available in Original Gin, Rhubarb & Ginger Gin, Blood Orange Gin and Quince Gin.

Brescome Barton welcomed award-winning U.K. import Whitley Neill Gin to its portfolio. Whitley Neill has been distilling spirits since 1762. Its traditional English gins are handcrafted in small batches and inspired by flavors from around the world in Liverpool, England. Johnny Neill is the eighth-generation family member heading the distillery. Whitley Neill is made from a 100% grain spirit that is steeped with botanicals prior to being distilled in an antique copper pot still called “Constance,” who is more than 105 years old. Pure water is used and each of the nine botanicals are carefully selected to ensure that they are of the highest quality. Whitley Neill’s tagline of “crafted from the tree of life” goes a long way in describing what those botanicals might be. Bringing together a mix of innovative botanicals like cape gooseberries and baobab fruit to its lineup, it also has other more traditional botanicals such as juniper, coriander, lemon and orange peel, angelica root, cassia bark, and orris root. Available in 750-ml bottles.
