Sikkim is home to gins like no other in the world. Prepared with a base of red tea made in the Himalayan region of Sikkim, it comes from the part of India where some of the best teas in the world are grown. It is the least populated state in India. It borders with Nepal and Tibet, and it was a gateway on the tea roads from China. It is on the terraces of these slopes where the red tea is grown. Sikkim Privee, Bilberry and Fraise are gins that have been prepared by carefully blending red tea and Dutch juniper with floral essences, resulting in a new, sensual experience with unique aromas and distinctive flavours to enjoy. All of it thanks to old copper stills (made in 1831) and the ideal distillation method discovered by a master gin-maker, who found the perfect balance in the proportions of alcohol and essences. Sikkim Bilberry is a distilled gin with juniper, red tea, flower essences, blackberries, blueberries, coriander, iris, calamus and bitter orange skin. It provides a sweet fruity taste on the palate with the aroma of flowers. 40% ABV / 700ml

The gin is very nice, I'm so glad I found a stockist after trying it at a local restaurant. The customer service from basco fine foods was exceptional will definitely be using again.

If you like the kids sweet, Refreshers, this is the Gin for you. Mmmmmm with a big handful of blue berry garnish. Gin and superfood, what’s not to like ?

Beautiful gin. Goes really well with a sweeter tonic to compliment it.

Bought 2 bottles gin, packing excellent and service exemplary. Just watch delivery dates. I asked for specific date but it arrived well before. Not a problem to me but just a point.

Fantastic gin, quite sweet but goes brilliantly with a range of tonics - my favourite is the Pink Cow Cardio Tonica. Would strongly recommend!
