What is St. George Botanivore Gin?
St. George Botanivore Gin is a botanical powerhouse, featuring a staggering 19 different plants in its recipe, including cilantro, cinnamon, and even roasted red bell peppers. This unique gin was inspired by the "Count of Monte Cristo," with its creator, Lance Winters, drawing inspiration from the novel's vivid descriptions of Mediterranean herbs and spices.
Why do we love St. George Botanivore Gin?
St. George Botanivore Gin stands out with its complex blend of 19 different botanicals, including cilantro, coriander, and fennel, creating a lush, herbaceous flavor profile that's perfect for gin lovers seeking depth beyond juniper. Unlike many gins that rely heavily on citrus notes, Botanivore leans into earthy, vegetal flavors, making it an excellent choice for savory cocktails or a distinctive gin and tonic.
How do you drink St. George Botanivore Gin?
St. George Botanivore Gin shines in citrus-forward cocktails or simply mixed with tonic, allowing its complex botanical profile to take center stage. This versatile spirit is perfect for warm spring and summer evenings, pairing wonderfully with light, herb-infused dishes or seafood, though it's equally enjoyable year-round for those who appreciate its nuanced flavors neat or over ice.
Discover some of our favorite recipes.
Nose: Fresh citrus peel, particularly lemon and orange. Juniper notes are present but not overpowering. Herbal aromas of fennel, cilantro, and bay leaf emerge, along with subtle floral hints reminiscent of jasmine and rose.
Palate: Smooth and well-balanced. The initial taste is bright with citrus, followed by a complex blend of botanicals. Coriander and angelica root provide earthy undertones, while star anise and cardamom add warm, spicy notes. The juniper is noticeable but integrated, allowing other flavors to shine.
Finish: Medium-long and clean. Pepper and ginger spice linger, balanced by a gentle sweetness akin to licorice root. The herbal qualities persist, leaving a refreshing and slightly warming sensation. A faint mineral touch adds complexity to the aftertaste.
St. George Botanivore Gin is crafted using a unique "vapor infusion" technique, where 19 different botanicals are suspended in a basket above the base spirit during distillation. This method allows the delicate flavors of herbs, spices, and fruits to be gently extracted by the rising alcohol vapors, resulting in a complex and beautifully balanced gin with vibrant botanical notes.
