Bombay®
Sapphire® Gin
BOMBAY SAPPHIRE LONDON DRY GIN
took the world by storm with its release in 1988, quickly establishing
itself as the categorys first and only super-premium entry.
Packaged in an elegant, readily identifiable blue bottle, it has
become a popular favorite of the Martini-craving public.
One of the secrets behind Bombay Sapphires
phenomonal success can be found in the singular way that it is distilled.
The gin is crafted using four Carter Head stills, the only examples
of this type in the world. Neutral grain spirits are double-distilled,
and then during their final distillation the rising vapors pass
through a copper still basket holding the gins 10 botanicals
and aromatics.
The proprietary mix includes herbs, spices,
roots, fruit and juniper berries from exotic places around the world.
All of the ingredients are crushed or grated prior to distillation
to fully release their flavors. It is bottled at 94 proof.
Bombay Sapphire richly deserves its universal
ranking as a must have brand. The gin is crystal clear
with a plush, medium-weight body. Its bouquet is absolutely mesmerizing.
It is a sensational mélange of citrus, spice and juniper.
Sapphire is brimming with crisp, mouth filling flavors that linger
on the palate for a consummate finish.
