Certified Scottish Gin
All our packaging can be recycled
Initially branded as 1670 Gin, taking its name from the year the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh was founded, this gin was rebranded and renamed in 2024 after Edinburgh Gin introduced its new look packaging and brand. Edinburgh Botanics Dry Gin was a collaboration with the world renowned Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE). This partnership saw Edinburgh Gin's Head Distiller, David Wilkinson, working closely with Botanist Dr Greg Kenicer over 12 months to craft this tailor-made Scottish Gin. Botanicals from the gardens feature in the Edinburgh Botanics Dry Gin distillation, including Tasmanian lanceolate leaves and berries, piper leaf along with juniper, coriander seed, liquorice root, cardamom and sweet cicely.

About Edinburgh Gin
Edinburgh Gin is committed to the art and science of distilling, and of creating innovative, award-winning gins. Based in Scotland’s capital city, they are ever inspired by its gin making heritage, and of its position as a global light; a home to scientists, artists, philosophers and inventors. Edinburgh Gin is an artful distillation, capturing the spirit of these luminaries, whilst respecting and paying tribute to their unique sense of place; inspiring them to create a world class portfolio of gins.
Production
The production of the Edinburgh Gin expressions is spread over two unique distillery sites in Edinburgh. Heads & Tales is both a bar and home to two stills, Flora and Caledonia. Both stills are used to distil a variety of Edinburgh Gin expressions. The second production site is housed in the Biscuit Factory, located a few miles away in Leith. The distillery in the Biscuit Factory houses a large 1000 litre traditional copper pot Hoga Still. The site also features a number of smaller stills, which are used for recipe creation and development before being upscaled at either the Biscuit Factory or Heads & Tales.
