WITH THE GLOBAL POPULARITY OF GIN SHOWING NO SIGN OF COOLING OFF
ENTER BVI GIN BVI GIN is a new product, launched by the Little Bay Distilling Company in the British Virgin Islands last September. BVI GIN is a small batch craft gin which was created in the territory and distilled and bottled on the island of Tortola. Following hurricane Irma in September 2017, there was a great deal of news of devastation coming out of the BVI. Through our product, BVI GIN, we wanted to spread more positive messages about the territory; messages of resilience and that the destination is fully open for business. We therefore set to work creating and developing BVI GIN. We have created a traditional London Dry Gin with Caribbean influences. Whilst BVI GIN leads with juniper, there is a noticeable citrus flavour from grapefruit and lemon, which is balanced with floral notes taken from the hibiscus flower. BVI GIN has a naturally sweet finish, coming from cassia bark and liquorice root. The resulting gin is light and refreshing and pairs perfectly with tonic or Ting, and a twist of grapefruit. We are very proud that BVI GIN was recently awarded “Best Gin in the Americas� by The Gin Guide. The Gin Guide Awards is an independent, global celebration of the historic, diverse and growing gin industry. Highly recognised and respected by the trade and consumers alike for its rigorous and quality-focused approach, The Gin Guide Awards serve to highlight the exceptional products, distilleries and people within the gin industry across the world. www.bvigin.com
