In 2003 the Wall Street Journal declared Hendrick's "the best gin in the world". It's easy to see why. Hendrick's distils in miniscule batches of 450 litres, giving their master distiller greater control over quality. Hendrick's uses a blend of spirits from a rare Carter-Head Still and a small pot still. The two give different styles due to their construction and methods of distillation. The pot still spirit has an oily character with a strong juniper flavour. The spirit from the Carter-Head Still is more subtle with light floral and sweet fragrances derived from cucumber and rose petals essences which give the final gin its distinctive character.Serve with tonic over ice, garnished with cucumber rather than the traditional slice of lemon..
