What is Archipelago Botanical Gin?
Archipelago Botanical Gin is a unique spirit that captures the essence of the Philippines' 7,641 islands, infusing native botanicals like sampaguita (the national flower), ylang-ylang, and dalandan orange. This gin's creation involves a fascinating process where some of its botanicals are smoked using wood from mango trees, imparting a subtle smokiness that sets it apart from other gins.
Why do we love Archipelago Botanical Gin?
Cocktail enthusiasts should embrace Archipelago Botanical Gin for its unique blend of 28 botanicals, including six native to the Philippines like ylang-ylang and pomelo. This gin stands out with its smooth, citrus-forward profile and subtle floral notes, offering a taste of the tropical archipelago in every sip – a refreshing departure from traditional London Dry styles.
How do you drink Archipelago Botanical Gin?
Archipelago Botanical Gin shines in refreshing gin and tonic variations or citrus-forward cocktails, perfectly capturing the essence of a breezy summer evening. This aromatic gin also stands up beautifully on its own over ice or neat, pairing wonderfully with light seafood dishes or zesty Asian cuisine that complements its complex botanical profile.

Nose: Juniper forward with bright citrus notes of lemon and lime. Herbal undertones of rosemary and thyme mingle with a hint of spicy black pepper. A subtle floral aroma reminiscent of jasmine lingers in the background.
Palate: Smooth and well-balanced. The initial juniper bite gives way to a complex blend of botanicals. Coriander and cardamom provide warmth, while a touch of licorice adds depth. Fresh cucumber and green tea flavors emerge, creating a crisp, clean taste.
Finish: Medium-long with a pleasant warmth. Lingering notes of juniper and citrus zest. A subtle earthiness reminiscent of pine needles and moss appears at the end, along with a gentle peppery tingle that slowly fades.
Archipelago Botanical Gin is crafted using a unique "rotovap" distillation process, which allows for gentler extraction of delicate flavors from its blend of 28 botanicals. This method, combined with a base of organic Swedish wheat spirit, helps preserve the subtle nuances of ingredients like yuzu, pomelo, and Sichuan pepper, resulting in a complex and aromatic gin that captures the essence of Southeast Asian flavors.
