The first gin to be distilled in Cornwall for over 100 years, Tarquin’s Dry Gin is a contemporary take on the classic London Dry. 12 hand selected botanicals are used in its production, with Devon violets and fresh citrus zest dominating this light, floral, easy drinking gin. Southwestern Distillery use juniper from Kosovo as it’s fresh and quite floral. Lemon sherbet coriander seeds are sourced from Bulgaria rather than the spicier Moroccan variety. The fresh zest of orange, lemons and grapefruits are also used along with angelica root, orris root, green cardamom, almonds, cinnamon, liquorice root. The final botanical in this wonderful gin is Devon violets, sourced from Tarquin’s own garden! South Western Distillery is headed up by Tarquin who is so proud of his creation he puts his name on every bottle. He believes in doing things the old-fashioned way, even if it takes longer. Only the best and most pure spirit (the heart) makes it into Tarquins Gin, which is diluted to bottling strength at 42% with Cornish spring water. Tarquins Dry Gin is made in small batches of just 300 bottles at a time before being hand selected, bottled, labeled and signed by Tarquin himself. This attention to detail goes some way to explaining why this is our best selling Cornish gin. Awarded Gold at IWSC 2014 and Gold at San Francisco World Spirts Competition 2016.As the original Cornish gin maker, Tarquin has since released several equally exciting varieties such as Tarquin’s Tonquin Gin, Tarquin’s Sea Dog Navy Strength and Tarquin’s Cornish Crocus Gin.

Unfortunately living in west Wales it is tricky to source some home grown Gin and being Cornish means I would like to support my home county. I ordered this for a Birthday present and am very glad to say it was delivered very swiftly and being enjoyed by the brother and sister in law. Thank you for a brilliant service!

This is the best gin ive tasted. Its definately my favourite. Its infused with orange blossom or summer flowers and its not overpowering , just enough to taste a bit different.

I have already done a review but happy to do it again. Tarquins Gin you cannot beat and it is very difficult to buy at supermarkets. Drinkfinder was excellent in every way, from a telephone call to ordering on line and delivery. Superb service highly delighted and would most certainly use Drinkfinder again

I first tried this gin 2 years ago when having a meal in Porthleven Cornwall, since then it has become one of my favourite gins, tried is this year with herbs as a cocktail, very smoothing. The gin is not harsh like some, more aromatic then normal gin,
