This Smoked Orange edition is a credit to resident distiller, Craig Chalmers. Martin challenged Craig to take Rock Rose Gin into exploring an entirely different flavour profile, whilst remaining true to the distinctive notes of their original Scottish spirit. This release uses fine Lapsang Souchong tea to deliver smoky notes to enhance zesty organic orange peel. Complemented by tangerine sage and lemon verbena; this is a richly complex gin with a bright bonfire nose and a palate that wakes the taste buds.

About Rock Rose Gin
Dunnet Bay Distillery was established by founders Claire and Martin Murray, who returned to the Caithness area after years of studying and working away. Their desire to return home and strike the right balance of family and work life, led them to build their own distillery in Dunnet Bay in 2014, just ahead of the Scottish Gin craft boom. They've fulfilled their ambition to create jobs and produce award-winning spirits, which are distributed and enjoyed all over the world.
