Process & Profile
Uncle Val’s Botanical Gin is produced in small batches, inspired by the culinary gardening legacy of “Uncle Valerio” and his passion for Tuscan-style cuisine. The gin uses a neutral grain base spirit distilled five times, then infused with a botanical blend centring on cucumber, lemon, sage and lavender alongside classic juniper. It is gluten-free, contains no artificial colours, flavours or additives, and reflects a modern, garden-inspired gin profile.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Crisp cucumber, fresh lemon zest, soft lavender, herbal sage and faint juniper.
Palate: Clean, germinating cucumber notes layered over bright citrus, sage herbal complexity and gentle juniper backbone.
Finish: Smooth and easy, with lingering lemon peel, subtle floral lavender, and soft spice from sage.

How to Enjoy
Serve Uncle Val’s Botanical Gin chilled in a coupe or a stemmed glass to open its cucumber-lemon-herb profile. It performs beautifully in a simple G&T with premium tonic and a slice of cucumber or lemon. For something more adventurous, try it in a Gin Basil Smash or a Lemon-Cucumber Collins to amplify the herbal and citrus notes. When sipping neat, it also works with light appetizers such as cucumber canapés, citrusy salads or fresh goat-cheese crostini.
