Herrera said: “The coconut tree has always had a strong link to the Bacardi family, being the emblem of the company symbolising the coconut palm that was planted at the original Bacardi Rum distillery. To celebrate Spring, Whitley Neill, the UK’s number one premium gin brand* has launched two new flavoured gins – Apple & Red Berries and Banana & Guava. Now available in retailers across the country, both gins are perfect for the warmer seasons, providing a fruity twist for those looking to enjoy the special and innovative taste of Whitley Neill.

These berries with other flavors and aroma change the taste dramatically. The distillation of tart fruit pulp adds the distinctive citrus flavor to the gin.

The Royal Warrant holder’s latest release, Rose and Cherry Bubbly, balances the sweet tartness of cherries with the floral notes of the rose, naturally sweetened with Muscat grape juice and finished with Sicilian lemons alongside soft Dartmoor spring water.

I love to experiment and play with flavours, giving rum fans a sensory experience that will transport them to the Caribbean with every sip.” They both shine through in equal parts of the negroni. Whitley Neill Gins makes consistent mixing gins. The citrus character of the gin is nicely paired with fresh citrus. Whitley Neill still retains the character of juniper, citrus, and coriander. The two new flavours include 'Apple & Red Berries' and 'Banana and Guava'. Similar to all the other gins in the Whitley Neill range, the two new exotic flavours have been inspired by founder Johnny Neill's travels.

Beyond that Whitley Neill Gin is distilled on a century old copper pot still and other than the two signature botanicals, the bill is pretty standard. It’s distilled on a base of grain spirit and bottled at 43% ABV. Tasting Notes Enjoying Spritzes has become a popular trend, and Whitley Neill’s high quality, flavoured gins lend themselves perfectly to this serve,” Neill added. “Whether it’s to enjoy when entertaining at BBQs, social get togethers, staycations or as an aperitif at home, the new innovative editions will bring a bit of sunshine to gin lovers across the UK.”
