The Gin in the distinctive blue bottle. Vapour infused with ten exotic botanicals including traditional gin botanicals such as juniper berries, citrus, angelica and orris root. To these are added coriander, liquorice, cassia bark, almonds, cubeb berries and West African grains of paradise. The result is a wonderfully balanced, crisp yet delicate finish.

"Bombay Sapphire was launched in 1987 and has grown to become one of the world’s most famous gins, in its distinctive blue bottle. ‘Bombay’ references gin’s popularity in India during Queen Victoria’s rule (her image appears on the label), while ‘Sapphire’ refers to the Star of Bombay, a 182-carat sapphire on display at the Smithsonian Institute. Bombay Sapphire is owned by Bacardi and is produced at an historic mill in Hampshire, England.
The distinctive ice-blue bottle of Bombay Sapphire is a staple behind bars around the world. The characteristics of its 10 botanicals are captured using vapour infusion. Flavours of juniper and citrus lead on the palate, along with spice from liquorice and coriander and underlying light woody notes."
