In celebration of World Gin Day on June 10, we've selected our picks of Edinburgh Gins, from Swiftys, including a collection of cocktail recipes for you to get you into the spirit of things.
Born in 2010, Edinburgh Gin is distilled in the heart and harbour of Scotland’s capital city.
Taking inspiration from the wonder-filled city that is their name sake – a captivating city of contrasts and harmony that blends historic tradition with contemporary creativity, city pride with world citizenship, nature and the urban environment.
Beginning with the Classic, a world class London Dry, which became the foundation for a series of expressions that led the flavoured gin revolution. Today, Edinburgh Gin’s suite of beautifully crafted and naturally flavoured gins spans London Dry’s, Gin Liqueurs, Flavoured Gins and Ready To Drink serves. Together they represent one of the most varied and vibrant range of gins in the world.
