Distilled on the Home of Golf
Eden Mill sits in St Andrews, so a golf-course gin was inevitable — but the execution is literal: the distilling team picks gorse, heather, and lavender from the Old Course and pairs them with Scottish kombu seaweed, whose subtle salinity cuts the floral notes. "The result? A classic and refreshing London Dry gin crafted with botanicals that tell a unique story," per the brand. The distillery's tasting shorthand: fresh floral notes and soft herbs with a hint of coastal salinity, crisp juniper, and a clean, refreshing finish.

Tasting Notes
The distillery's notes describe "hints of juniper in a forest of lavender and spruce trees with a subtle underlying salty tang" on the nose; on the palate "the juniper dominates as it should but is balanced out with a sweetness from the gorse," while heather and lavender add florals and spruce and coriander a peppery finish. Crisp and fresh throughout.
How to Enjoy
The classic serve is a premium tonic garnished with a bramble and a sprig of mint. The saline-citrus profile also makes it a strong martini gin — try it 4:1 with dry vermouth and a lemon twist.
