Why is Bombay Sapphire gin so special?
Based on a secret 1761 recipe, the taste of Bombay Sapphire gin is created by perfectly balancing a unique combination of the finest botanical ingredients sourced from around the world. Unlike many other gins, which boil their botanicals directly in the spirit to achieve their taste, the 10 botanicals in Bombay Sapphire are place by hand into a perforated copper basket. The spirit vapour passes up through the basket and in a process known as 'vapour infusion' it is delicately infused with the aromatic flavours of the botanicals. The result is the refined and delicately balanced taste which gives Bombay Sapphire its extraordinary versatility.
