How is Loveday Glas House Gin made?
Just like all other Loveday gins, Loveday Glas House Gin is distilled by Loveday Distilling, which was founded by friends and chefs Chloe Gillatt and Daisy Hillier.
We love unhurried, unfussy get-togethers with our favourite people, a glass of something darn good in hand. We wanted to make gins with those moments in mind.
— Chloe Gillatt, Loveday Distilling Co-Founder
Using their still, named Mabel, they create Loveday Glas House Gin by distilling juniper with a selection of botanicals chosen for their ability to capture the flavours of the English garden and the experience of sitting out with your gin pals to enjoy a G&T or two.
To create a herbaceous palate, they chose rosemary and then added lemon and lemon thyme, which complement the rosemary wonderfully.
For a savoury, peppery finish, nasturtium is added to the botanical mix. This beautiful flower rounds out the whole experience in a way that is moreish and scrumptious and completely delicious.
You can find the full list of Loveday Glas House Gin botanicals here: juniper, coriander, orris, angelica, liquorice, lemon, lemon thyme, rosemary and nasturtium.
What is it called “Glas House Gin”?
“Glas House” is a play on words that mixes the distillers’ love of the garden with their love of their Cornwall, “Glas” being the Cornish word for “Green”.
We went for the phrase “Glas House” because it pays homage to our Cornish roots, while also reflecting the abundance of green that inspired this gin.
— Daisy Hillier, Loveday Distilling Co-Founder
What does Loveday Glas House Gin taste like?
On the nose, Loveday Glas House Gin has a scintillating bouquet of herb and citrus tones in the form of rosemary and lemon that are garden-fresh. They continue onto the palate, joined by warm peppery notes that last long into the winding, complex, fabulously moreish finish.
Where is Loveday gin made?
Loveday gins are distilled at Loveday Distilling in the picturesque port village of Penryn in the northwest of Falmouth in Cornwall.
There, the Loveday team host a monthly open house. Complete with carefully curated menus, exquisite cocktails and craft workshops, often in collaboration with other Cornish artisans, these events bring people together over top-notch spirits.
