Botanical Bursts - Moroccan Coriander
Core Distillate
Product description
Part of the Core Distillate range, this Botanical Burst of Coriander celebrates a key botanical found in most gins. This Coriander is from Morocco – known for producing vibrant orange citrus and spice notes. It’s been distilled using premium organic alcohol at City of Aberdeen Distillery.
Although you could drink this as it comes, as with all of our Botanical Bursts, we’ve actually designed them to be … strong, and in some cases, very strong – a small amount goes a long way to imparting the flavour. We’re talking wee dashes for a double G&T.
Make the most out of your burst
The beauty of the Botanical Burst lies in its versatility. There are no rules - only great taste.
- The "Wee Dash": Add a wee dash to a G&T
- The “Creator”: Mix and match with other Bursts to build an entirely new, bespoke gin profile – either by the glass or add to a bottle of gin / vodka.
- The “Rescue Mission”: Have a bottle in the cupboard that’s lost its lustre? A generous dash can revitalise a tired gin, bringing back that "fresh-from-the-still" vibrancy.
Gin Blending Workshop
The Botanical Bursts were originally developed for our Gin Blending Workshops. Now you can take home a burst and play at being a Master Distiller from the comfort of your own home. If you prefer to know more (and taste many of the bursts), why not book a Gin Blending Workshop online.
The Art of the Essence: Why Distillation Wins
When creating a premium botanical addition, the method of capture is everything. While maceration (steeping botanicals in alcohol) is a common home DIY technique, it often results in a "heavy" or "muddy" flavour profile, as the alcohol pulls out bitter tannins and dark pigments along with the oils.
By contrast, our distillation and advanced extraction process focuses solely on the volatile aromatic oils. This method allows us to strip away the bitterness, leaving behind all the good parts and what is considered as a high-definition flavour. The result is a purer, more "bright" expression of the botanical that integrates seamlessly into your drink without clouding the spirit or weighing down the palate.
