“It’s Friday. It’s six o’clock. That glass isn’t going to raise itself.”
There are several different expressions in the Persie Distillery gin range – all built to be enjoyed neat, with tonic or a variety of mixers, and in cocktails.
Our Distillery Originals.
The Distillery Originals range has three flavour profiles – fruity, savoury and sweet – the styles that prove consistently most popular at tastings. Zesty Citrus is sharply fruity, chock-full of limes and oranges; Herby & Aromatic is dry and savoury, with rosemary, basil, bay leaves and olives; and Sweet & Nutty Old Tom is full-bodied and creamy, with fresh vanilla pods, almonds and a hint of root ginger. We think of it as a starter, main course and pudding in gin!
Our Charity Spirits.
We have chosen PADS dog rescue as our dedicated charity partner and are committed to raising funds to rehome abandoned dogs through a series of ‘dog gins’ – where the breed is reflected in the gin! The range includes Labrador Gin (traditional and mellow), Spaniel Gin (lively and spicy), and Dachshund Gin Liqueur (sweet and sharp)! For every bottle sold, £1 is donated to PADS. A special edition is Dog Days Gin – our much-loved cross-breed as it is a mix of all three gins, featuring juniper, cinnamon and oranges. Fittingly, our Pusscat Vodka is silky smooth and was dubbed ‘the new Grey Goose’ at the World Vodka Awards. This is a fundraiser for Edinburgh Cat Home.
Our Fruit Liqueurs.
We have two fruit liqueurs with botanicals hand-picked by the distillery team. The Sloe & Plum Gin is tart and tangy with a rich depth of flavour, intensified by the addition of local Glenshee plums. The Raspberry & Mint Gin liqueur captures Highland Perthshire in a bottle! The nose is faint fresh mint leaves but the key botanical is the scent and sensation of rich, velvety raspberries. Sweet with a touch of tart, the result is a wonderfully jammy spirit, redolent of the Blairgowrie countryside.
