Introducing a new limited release The Prince of Darkness Edition
Every year we develop a spooky spirit in celebration of Whitby's Gothic heritage. This year it is the 125th publishing Anniversary of the release of Bram Stoker's - Dracula. This celebratory spirit is laid to rest in Transylvanian Oak Casks taking on flavours of vanilla and caramel. The oak-aged gin is then partnered in Cherry and Citrus to create a spirit as impressive in appearance as it is on the palate.
It is the blood of Dracula's victims that kept him alive, and it is our crimson spirit that keeps the story thriving today.
The Prince of Darkness is our first gothic edition to be released in our Yorkshire-made black bottle. The blood-red spirit contained in the vessel would surely even tempt Dracula himself. Delicious on its own, we also recommend pouring the crimson spirit over something bubbly to create a true epic!
Palate: Sweet cherry notes are perfectly balanced against a hint of smokiness to create a fierce warmth with an added bite.
Nose: A citrus aroma with a hint of smokiness partnered with a hint of jammy sweetness.
