Silent Pool Gin has unveiled a limited-edition 10th Anniversary Celebration Edition Gin in tribute to the passion, dedication and artistry that has defined Silent its distillers over the last decade.
Reflecting the character of the Surrey Hills as well as the journey that Silent Pool Gin has travelled, the Celebration Edition has been created using Silent Pool Distillers’ trademark four-step production process and a botanical recipe that has been specifically crafted to highlight delicious notes of pear in a nod to the Distilleries early days producing award winning pear eau de vie.
Handcrafted in the heart of the Surrey Hills, Silent Pool Gin was launched in 2014 by Ian McCulloch and James Shelbourne and born out of the desire to create a new kind of distillery producing premium, artisan spirits with uncompromising quality and a strong focus on sustainable and locally sourced ingredients. After selling over 30,000 bottles in its first year, Silent Pool Gin has gone from strength to strength, winning numerous coveted industry awards and becoming the most gifted gin brand within the UK.
Created by combining traditional distilling methods with a modern and innovative approach, the Celebration Edition is multi-layered in its profile with highly fragrant, floral notes of chamomile, elderflower and pear; harmoniously layered with warming ginger and a hint of vanilla, further balanced by the bright notes of fresh lime and spearmint. Elevating the overall tasting experience, the Celebration Edition has a long and refreshing finish with a remarkably silky, rich texture thanks to an infusion of local Surrey heather honey predistillation. The Celebration Edition is delicious paired with elderflower tonic for a delightful G&T or in many classic cocktails such as a Martini of French 75.
As a limited release, the Celebration Edition is available in 1litre bottles featuring the striking and recognisable teal coloured glass complete with intricate copper botanical pattern and a number 10 proudly displayed in celebration of this significant milestone, making it a beautiful collector’s item and a spectacular addition to any home bar for sharing with friends and loved ones.
The 10 Year Celebration edition comes with its very own specially designed Pear and Patchouli Aroma Garnish. This is a truly stunning aromatic blend to garnish G&T’s and cocktails which enhance the spirit’s elegance and complexity. The crisp, juicy scent of ripe pear adds a refreshing brightness, evoking the essence of a sun-kissed orchard. In contrast, the earthy, musky notes of patchouli introduce a warm, grounding element, creating a beautifully balanced profile.
The intense floral notes from the garnish infuse the cocktail with an inviting fragrance that lingers as it is sipped. The result is a sophisticated sensory experience, combining the sweetness of the pear with the depth of patchouli, perfectly complementing the botanicals of the gin.
To commemorate the 10th anniversary, visit the Silent Pool Distillery located in idyllic Surrey Hills to enjoy a guided tour and tasting of the limited-edition gin and experience first-hand the passion and craftsmanship that goes into every bottle.
