About this deal

Made using 26 botanicals, including juniper, wild blueberries, lingonberries, rhubarb, elderflower, mint, coriander, angelica root, and ginger. When you taste Bareksten, you’ll notice a strong juniper flavour, followed by hints of citrus and spice.

The rolling hills of Wales are so rarely remembered, and yet they hold some of the most interesting history in all of the United Kingdom. Bareksten Gin has a traditional base line, but you will find wild blueberries, lingonberries, rhubarb, elderflower, mint and an additional 20 different ingredients. Produced in small batches in the heart of Bergen, Norway, Bareksten Botanical Gin is a true testament to the art of distillation. The gin is named after the entrepreneur himself, Stig Bareksten, who was also one of the founders of “Det Norske Brenneri” - known for Norway's first whiskey. Als Laie im Alkohol Bereich gibt es für mich nur zwei Arten von Gins, die schmecken und Gins, die nicht schmecken.The unique flavour profile of this gin makes it a great choice for those who are looking for something a little different from their usual gin. Served with a Mediterranean tonic, the additional sweetness would complement the fennel and caraway, whilst a light tonic will help accentuate the citrus and floral characters. Bareksten Old Tom Gin is produced in the Norwegian distillery Oss Craft Distillery and like other products of the Bareksten family, it represents the true essence of Norway. Bareksten Navy Strength Gin won Spirit of the Year in London, June 2022, in a blind-tasting competition of 2,500 drinks from all spirit categories.

Fennel, mint and aniseed give a menthol quality, whilst the elderflower, blueberry and lingonberry help to give a fruited sense of softer perfume. Please always read the labels, warnings, and directions provided with the product before using or consuming a product. For a Martini fit for a hardened sailor, try mixing 7 cl Bareksten Navy Strength Gin (frozen) with a few drops of dry vermouth directly into a frozen martini glass with added zest of a lemon and/or a green olive.

On opening the parcel, I was seriously impressed by the effort that had gone in to the packaging and design of my three 50ml samples.
