The Glasgow Distillery Company launches Makar Cherry Gin

The Glasgow Distillery Company  has added a new addition to their core range with the launch of a cherry gin.

The fifth addition to the award-winning Makar Gin family, the Makar Cherry Gin is created by infusing ripe, seasonal fresh cherries and a sprinkling of pink peppercorn in Makar’s Original Dry Gin, before being pressed to "release maximum flavour".

Available now on The Glasgow Distillery website and priced at £25 for a 500ml bottle, the versatile gin is the latest in a range of new products from the Glasgow Distillery Company, which recently sold out of its first batch of whisky – 1770 Glasgow Single Malt Scotch Whisky – in a matter of days.

 

Mike Hayward, co-founder of The Glasgow Distillery Company, said: “Portfolio
development and innovation is something we hold in high regard – we’re constantly
working with our talented team of young distillers to identify new and interesting
products to share with our customers.

“Makar Cherry Gin is perfectly placed for a gin market where consumers are
seeking, new and exciting brand offerings.

“Makar Cherry Gin balances the traditional bold juniper-forward notes that Makar is well known for, with delicious richness from the ripe cherries, accompanied by a hint of subtle spice from the pink peppercorns on the finish. A full flavoured gin, Makar Cherry is perfect for mixing and sharing with friends.”
