The multi-award-winning gin brand’s first-ever flavour variant, chosen by the Bathtub Gin consumer.
After two rounds of social media competitions, Bathtub Gin has discovered which flavour of gin their consumers really want to drink. Bathtub’s signature double infused gin is then blended with all-natural grapefruit and rosemary, elevating the classic citrus flavours with the herbal fragrance of rosemary.
Over 2,500 votes were cast by Bathtub Gin consumers, with the finalist entries based around some of the most popular Gin and Tonic garnishes and in line with current flavoured and craft gin trends.
To celebrate the launch of the brand’s first line extension, the product has been given a new look and feel, with the brand updating the hand-drawn imagery with colour and bringing a foil effect to its namesake Bathtub. The bottle is still wrapped, strung and waxed by hand in Kent for that iconic look synonymous with Bathtub Gin.
Hannah Burden-Teh, Bathtub Gin Brand Manager, said of the new release:
“Launching our first flavour variant is exciting enough, but this is compounded by it being chosen by our consumers! We’ve worked hard to create the most delicious interpretation that captures that fragrant hit of grapefruit and rosemary. To mark such a special moment, the hand-drawn illustrations have been printed in colour for the first time on our iconic bottle and our namesake bathtub foiled. We can’t wait for consumers to drink their creation!”
Tasting Notes
Nose: The familiar wafts of full-bodied juniper, cardamom, and orange greet you before the fragrant floral wafts of rosemary appear.
Palate: Fresh, juicy grapefruit notes make themselves known on the palate right away. Earthy hints of cinnamon, juniper, and more rosemary develop, all while maintaining Bathtub Gin’s characteristic creaminess.
Finish: Lasting hints of subtly festive spice and sweet citrus.
Whilst the flavours of Bathtub Gin Grapefruit & Rosemary work fantastically in a wide variety of cocktails (try mixing it up in your Negroni for a great twist on the classic drink), the juicy grapefruit notes and fragrant, floral rosemary work beautifully together to create the perfect bittersweet gin and tonic.
