Fort Gin
41% Portsmouth Dry Gin
Awarded an 2019 IWSC International Wine and Spirit Competition, Bronze medal in our first year.
Small batch artisanal 41% Dry Gin. Created from foraging the local landscape of Fort Cumberland and discovering botanicals growing on site.
After several different combinations, we settled on an exquisite blend of local Elderflower, Gorse Flower and Sea Radish. Our intricate mix gives a rich full flavour, with a lovely floral bouquet. It is silky smooth on the palate leaving you with a warmth as you swallow.
Or as the Gin Guide reviewed: “Fort Gin is smooth and rounded with well balanced floral notes, spice, subtle sweetness, and a peppery finish. It has depth of flavour and personality that make it moreish and appealing, and not just another gin. Combined with the charming presentation of the bottle, the historic location of the distillery, and the use of three botanicals grown at Fort Cumberland, Fort Gin has the full package and its a gin that Portsmouth can be proud of. Serve in a G&T with a lime garnish. – Paul Jackson, 2019″
