This edition is made precisely to our original recipe, as it was written down in Bombay, 1947. The cinnamon used in this version gives your gin a decidedly fragrant warmth.
Spicier, sweeter and more intense, it's a decadent trip back to the last days of Raj.
More About Our 1947 Gin
Pickering’s Gin is based on an original Bombay recipe, dating from 17 July 1947. Kept as a family secret for over 66 years, it only resurfaced when we began distilling at Summerhall in Edinburgh.The original recipe gave us a gin full of fragrant spices and fresh citrus fruits – just the way they liked it in the days of the Raj.
Tasting notes: Cardamom, coriander, clove and cinnamon spice lead to a crisp, refreshing and long finish.


The Perfect Serve
Fill a hi-ball or gin goblet with ice. Add 50ml of gin and 150ml of tonic, and add a slice of orange.
If you're feeling adventurous, try mixing with ginger ale, Dr Pepper or if you are feeling really Scottish, why not try Irn Bru?
