Hendrick's Flora Adora Gin
Hendrick's Flora Adora Gin is a 43.4% ABV (86.8 proof) limited-release floral gin from the Hendrick's Cabinet of Curiosities — Master Distiller Lesley Gracie's experimental series at the Gin Palace in Girvan, Scotland. Built on Hendrick's signature 11 botanicals with rose and cucumber, Flora Adora adds a bouquet of fresh flowers — hibiscus, lavender, chamomile — for an intensely floral, garden-inspired profile.

A Wildflower Garden, Distilled
Lesley Gracie watches the bees and butterflies in the Gin Palace gardens — which flowers they settle on, which they skip — and distills what she learns. Flora Adora is the result: a limited-edition gin inspired by the blooms pollinators adore most, layering hibiscus, lavender and chamomile over Hendrick's unmistakable rose-and-cucumber base. The 43.4% bottling strength keeps the florals vivid without tipping into perfume. Browse gin or the full Hendrick's range.
Tasting Notes
Nose: blooming florals — rose petals, lavender, chamomile, elderflower — with cucumber freshness and citrus zest. Palate: smooth and floral — chamomile, rose, sweet petals, cucumber and light citrus over juniper and coriander. Finish: medium-long, clean and dry, florals lingering.
How to Enjoy
The distillery's Wildgarden Cup (gin, lemon, simple syrup, soda, raspberries, mint, cucumber) is the signature serve; also superb in a G&T with cucumber, where tonic tames the florals. Avoid the Martini — the florals overwhelm vermouth.
