Refusing outdated notions of gin. 

Brockmans is Like No Other gin. It stands proudly alone from the many other types of gin due to the unique recipe of exquisite botanicals and the patient steeping distillation process. To make Brockmans, exquisite botanicals are sourced from all over the world. These include some typical ingredients such as angelica from Saxony, Bulgarian coriander and juniper berries from Tuscany. The more traditional notes of gin are combined with a refreshing influence of citrus and aromatic wild berry. This creates an intensely smooth gin with a beautifully crafted taste that is sensual and daringly different. 


Brockmans are the standard bearers and descendants of a long line of gins that stretches back to time immemorial. And while respecting and honouring the traditions that have led them to this time and place, they refuse to be beholden to outdated notions of what is and is not a gin. 

So what botanicals go into Brockmans’ Intensely Smooth Premium Gin? 

JUNIPER BERRIES
(ITALY)

Gin’s subtle signature perfume…a discerning nose might detect hints of pine and lavender.

LEMON PEEL
(MURCIA, SPAIN)

Essential! Lemony, zesty citrus.

LIQUORICE
(CHINA)

Provides light woody aromas and sweetness… the secret touch.

CASSIA BARK
(INDOCHINA)

Warm cinnamon notes but softer in aroma… the art of less is more.

CORIANDER
(BULGARIA)

The irresistible contradictions. Spicy sage and sweet citrus notes

ORANGE PEEL
(SPAIN)

More subtle than lemon, softer on the palate… ah the sweet aromas!

ORRIS
(ITALY)

Root of the iris flower… provides notes of violets and helps bind the other botanicals together.
