Ian Macleod Distillers is introducing into global travel retail Edinburgh Gin 1670, a limited-edition, full-strength gin, inspired by the Royal Botanic Garden in the city of Edinburgh. It launches exclusively at Singapore Changi Airport with Lotte Travel Retail.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh was founded in 1670 and is one of the world\u2019s oldest botanic gardens, renowned for its biodiversity and rich botanical collections. It is also a leading international research organisation, delivering knowledge, education and plant conservation action around the world. Edinburgh Gin 1670 (70cl \/ ABV 43% \/ US$49) was created in partnership with the gardens to support their conservation and sustainability projects and is the only gin to use fresh ingredients sourced directly from the Garden, a treasure trove of over 14,000 botanicals.<\/p>\n

Winner of the Best Innovation Award at the Scottish Gin Awards 2018 and a Gold Medal at the Spirits Business Gin Masters 2021, Edinburgh Gin 1670 has a distinctive flavour with botanicals freshly picked from this extraordinary Garden. Edinburgh Gin\u2019s head distiller, David Wilkinson and chief botanist, Dr Greg Kenecer worked together to create an original, botanically rich gin with a balanced yet rare profile. Within each bottle, the likes of sweet cicely, piper leaf and Tasmania lanceolata combine to create a balanced yet enticingly unusual gin.<\/p>\n
