Dyfi Distillery Hibernation Gin 45% abv 50cl

The Independent No 1 from their list of Top Ten New Gins, April 2017!

Hibernation Gin botanicals (all locally foraged) include wild crab apples, blackberries, bilberries and lingonberries (cowberries).

Combined with carefully selected classic, and other locally-foraged botanicals, and precision-distil with a combination of their own pure spring water and grain spirit, before resting in a rare White Port cask.

Each bottle is hand signed and lot numbered, recognising extremely limited production.

Bottled at 45% volume without chill-filtration.

Hibernation Gin is an exquisite sipping gin, optionally chilled, or as a martini, and also makes a delicious negroni. Our most pleasant discovery is what an excellent Gin & Tonic it makes, but given that White Port & Tonic is such a fine combination, perhaps we should not be surprised.

Dyfi Distillery - 

Our location in the old slate mining village of Corris allows us to be very close to where so many of our botanicals are foraged. 

We distil in very small batches, using two small 100-litre stills. After looking at options from all over the world, our preference lay with a specialist still maker in Colorado.  We further customized the stills after shipping, so we could challenge one or two conventions, whilst respecting the best of tradition.

The result is what we call Precision-Distilling. We have developed and adapted techniques which allow for maximum control over maceration temperatures, variable copper contact for distillation and much more besides. Our stills can move from maceration- to distillation-temperature in an incredibly short time, which also contributes to optimum extraction of essential oils.
