The Gingilla, Gin Cocktail

Where To Buy Rock Rose Gin in Perth?

Where else but Provender Brown Delicatessan and Gin Specialist >>>

Created by Dunnet Bay Distillery in Caithness, rock rose gin gets its wonderful flavour from a carefully selected blend of local and traditional botanicals.
Each one has been meticulously chosen for their flavour properties to create the perfect taste.  It's no wonder our winning cocktail features this favourite of PB customers!

Juniper

Juniper is the predominant botanical – otherwise it just wouldn’t be gin! Rock Rose junipers come from two different countries and both are subjected to a vapour infusion process! The Bulgarian juniper gives lemon sherbert notes, whilst the Italian juniper gives a real warmth and depth to the flavour of the gin.

Rhodiola rosea

Locally the team at Dubbet Bay harvest Rhodiola rosea, more commonly known as rose root, which is a plant that grows in colder climes – ideal for the fresh breezes of Caithness. They use the root of the plant, which has the most wonderful rose aroma and adds a delicate floral note to our gin.

Sea Buckthorn

Sea buckthorn is a silvery leafed shrub that grows along the coastline and produces clusters of vibrant orange berry-like fruit, soft, juicy and rich in oils. The fruit is highly celebrated for its high vitamin C content, around 15 times more than an orange! Dunnet Bay uses the berries for their taste – gorgeously fruity yet crisp.

Rowan Berries

The deciduous rowan tree, sometimes known as mountain ash, produces a brilliant red berry-like fruit. The tree is very much celebrated as a ‘hero’ in many mythology and folklore tales and has been known as a ‘tree of protection’ and used against witchcraft.

The tree is a hero for Rock Rose too as its gorgeous red fruit imparts a delicate flavour adding to the berryful taste!
