Description

In the early 21st century, England witnessed a gin revival fueled by a surge in craft distilleries and a growing interest in artisanal spirits. Innovators like Sipsmith, which in 2009 became the first copper-pot-based distillery to start up in London in over 150 years, led the charge, championing small-batch production and premium ingredients. The craft movement has not only revitalised traditional styles but also introduced a new wave of contemporary gins featuring unconventional botanicals and distillation processes. is managed by B Office GmbH (DE318767726 - Court: District Court Flensburg HRB 12943 FL),Suederstrasse 75,24955 Harrislee -Court: District Court Flensburg HRB 12943 FL

Terroir, typically a term associated with wine, has found relevance in the craft gin scene. English distillers have begun to emphasise the importance of locality and sourcing, with botanicals often foraged from the surrounding countryside, adding a unique dimension to the gin. This local character allows for gins that reflect the very essence of the English landscape - from the rolling hills of the Cotswolds to the rugged coastlines of Cornwall. We work hard to provide as much and as accurate as possible product info for our customers via our webstore. The popularity of English gin has also given rise to 'gin tourism,' with enthusiasts eager to tour distilleries, attend tastings, and participate in gin-making workshops. Distilleries such as Bombay Sapphire's Laverstoke Mill offer interactive experiences that immerse visitors in the world of gin, showcasing both the craft and science behind the spirit.

The beauty of English gin lies in its botanicals - the herbs, spices, fruits, and flowers that are selected and infused to create each gin's unique flavour profile. While juniper is the cornerstone, other botanicals like coriander, angelica root, citrus peels, and cardamom are also commonly used. Each distillery has its own closely guarded recipe and method, contributing to the spirit’s vast spectrum of flavours.

This allows all the fine aromas to be assembled into the Mombasa Gin Club Colonel’s Reserve. A genuine London Dry Gin With a harmonious botanical fusion. The future of English gin looks as bright as its past is storied. The industry continues to flourish, with exports reaching record highs and new markets opening up to the distinct qualities of English gin. As consumers become more knowledgeable and discerning, the demand for transparency, sustainability, and innovation in production is driving distillers to continue evolving.

📖 Recipe

It begins in the end of the XIX Century, in the heart of Victorian times. The mighty and famous British Empire had been immersed in a colonial struggle throughout Africa for decades. The Empire already dominated sea communications and commercial routes, as well as most of the merchandise traffic between the Orient and the West. During the last third of the 19th Century, important British officials were stationed in the main Eastern commercial seaport, the strategic coastal city of Mombasa in Kenya, where, in 1885, they founded the first private social club: The legendary Mombasa Club which reached great fame and popularity as an inviting, idyllic meeting and relaxation place, where the members held lively debates and exchanged news along with their gins & tonics. Mombasa Club Colonel’s Reserve Gin is distilled following the traditional method known as batch distillation. The grain is all sourced from the UK, it is predominately wheat with some barley. No rye is used at all. After three distillations the botanicals are left to macerate for 48 hours before the final distillation is produced in the Tom Thumb 500 litre Pot Still. This prolonged period allows the alcohol to extract much more flavours and oils from the botanicals and gives a much more intense and roundness to the final product. Today, Mombasa Club Gin is still a nostalgic reminiscence of the spirit of those romantic adventurous pioneers of the glorious and epic XIX century English colonialism.

English gin, a spirit steeped in history and tradition, has undergone a remarkable renaissance, evolving from its infamous 18th-century moniker as ‘Mother’s Ruin’ to its contemporary status as a cornerstone of artisanal distillation and mixology. Its story is a tale of transformation and innovation, with English gin now celebrated across the globe for its quality and diversity of styles. Mombasa Gin Club Colonel’s Reserve is a special limited edition in homage to this particular breed of men who were able to take the Victorian British Empire through its most glorious period, reaching world fame and recognition.Olfactory Stage: Aromatically, it enjoys the harmony of a perfect fusion among its botanicals (cassia, caraway, calamus) highlighting, subtly, it’s more floral and citric point. The juniper then balances the whole. A few seconds resting in the glass, magnify the aromas creating a whole world of complexity and flavours from the botanicals.
