Hendrick’s Neptunia Gin, 70cl – An Exquisite Gin Gift For A Friend, Family or Colleague

Product Information

expert judges from the distilling and drinks industry were presented by flights of samples and asked to taste and assess each liquid across a range of quality standards. In the highly sought after taste competition, 12 Gold Medals were presented with Caorunn, Edinburgh Gin, Holyrood Distillery and Isle of Bute each collecting two golds each. The Scottish Gin Awards is one of the UK’s most comprehensive and highly regarded gin competitions as it assesses both taste and business performance. To be named a finalist is a massive achievement, especially given the challenges of the last 2 and a half years and shows the true resilience and innovation of our industry. The Neptune Rum and Tonic (R&T): Swap out gin for rum to revamp your go-to tipple. All you need to do is add 50ml Neptune Rum to a highball glass filled with ice and top with tonic water (the brand recommends Fever-Tree Premium Tonic Water) and a dash of orange bitters. Garnish with an orange twist and you’ve got yourself a simple, rum-tastic treat.

Of course, Neptune’s biggest asset ultimately its taste. But what does it actually taste like? Here’s are our classic notes to help you get an idea. I saw others recommend pairing Neptunia Gin with lemonade. I’m a bit less convinced as I think the saline qualities, whether perceived or present, run counter. It becomes a bit more herbal and savory. At least for me, these are qualities I’m less of a fan of in a gin and lemonade.The results are highly regarded as they are independently audited by a panel of experts and judged live in a rigorously assessed blind tasting event. Neptune is the Roman god of the sea, which wholly inspired this seashore reminiscent gin. Distilled with samphire and kelp - or Neptune’s belt, as it is sometimes known. When Davies initially explored developing a new drinks brand, it probably won’t surprise you to learn that gin was his first focus. However, he moved away from that idea after “talking to industry people”.

Playing host? Our range of flavoured gins is sure to get the party started. Whether you prefer a classic dry gin or want to add some colour with pink gin, we’ve got a wide variety to choose from. Just some of the flavours we offer include summery strawberry, peach and mango.

HENDRICK’S & TONIC

The sheer number of awards Neptune it has received in such a short space of time would suggest it was a smart move. The brand was named Britain’s Best Rum Brand at the 6th Golden Barrel Awards, as well as Barbados Rum of the Year at the New York International Spirits Competition 2018, and the Berlin International Spirits Competition. Neptune Rum was only launched in 2017, yet it already boasts over 40 prestigious global awards. How did the brand do it? We find out. Neptune’s final production stage involves a specific cold-filtration process and the addition of soft spring water to dilute the rum from 68% ABV cask strength to its 40% bottling strength. It is bottled in England, without any additional colouring or sugar. Davies was keen to emphasise that he wanted Neptune “to be really honest and very transparent” as a brand. “A lot of producers in the rum industry are a little cloak-and-dagger, which is thankfully coming to an end,” he added.

Neptune Rum and Cola: You can never go wrong with a classic Rum and Coke. It tastes great and it’s super easy to make. Add 50ml of Neptune Rum to a highball glass filled with ice. Then top with cola; Fever-Tree Madagascan Cola really highlights the vanilla flavours. Then garnish with fresh lime slices.
