Anglo-Saxons believed that if you fell asleep beneath elderflowers you would be invited into the world of the fairies. Imagine what might happen after sipping this nymph-sized miniature of The Lakes Elderflower Gin Liqueur… Created using elderflower and fourteen other botanicals, of which almost half are native to the Lake District National Park. Heady with elderflower, this liqueur is bottled springtime. Sip it neat, alongside summer fruits, or mix it with premium tonic, Prosecco, apple presse or soda with a slice of cucumber. But at 25% ABV and 50ml, we promise you won't be away with the fairies. The team at The Lakes Distillery has morphed a Victorian cattle farm into a world-class spirits producer, highlighted as one of the top five new distilleries in the world by Time Out USA. Located on the banks of Bassenthwaite Lake (the only official lake in the entire Lake District National Park as the others are technically meres or waters), they are fiercely proud of their provenance. This is demonstrated by the use of the Cumbrian juniper and foraged ingredients that find their way into Chemmy their handmade copper pot still.
