Mermaid Gin from the Isle of Wight is created using ten ethically sourced botanicals, it is a smooth but complex blend of the freshness of organic lemon zest, the peppery notes in grains of paradise and a hint of sea air from fragrant rock samphire. Refreshing and invigorating.
This small batch gin has been handcrafted on the Isle of Wight since 2014. However, it has recently received a massive remodelling into this new and unique mermaid inspired eco friendly bottle.
The rock samphire is locally foraged from the space between the sea and the shore, the world of the free spirited mermaid. Boadicea hops are grown at the famous Ventnor Botanic Garden and our coriander seeds are the first to be commercially grown in England. The other botanicals – including angelica root, liquorish root and orris root – are sourced by a father & son partnership visiting families and farmers around the world.

Voted Gin of The Year at the Scottish Gin Award
Eden Mill’s award-winning Original Gin, also known as Eden Gin, is the St Andrews take on a classic London Dry. This gin was voted Scotland’s Number One Gin at the 2018 Scottish Gin Awards, where 116 gins were blind tasted!
Made from Fife’s seabuckthorn berries, a super food that grows within walking distance of the St Andrews distillery. The unique tart berry flavour is abundant but they balance the gin around it using citrus elements drawn from the other botanicals (like lemon balm and citrus peel). This gin is on a quite different level to most.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Strong citrus nose of lemon balm, bitter orange and hints of light grapefruit.
Palate: Delicate spice of coriander and clove through the midpoint. A sweetness of lychee, rambutan and pear under more sweetness in an orange finish.
Finish: Well rounded and smooth with no burn. A classic, clean and refreshing gin.
