About Whitley Neill Original Handcrafted Dry Gin
Johnny Neill comes from a family with a rich tradition in distilling. As a child, he came upon a box of gin bottles in his grandmother’s house and wanted to learn more about the liquid that his family had been making since 1762. He learned about the impact various botanicals have on spirits and was instantly drawn to spirit-making. He set out to create a gin that would honor the tradition and passion of his family, with an exotic and modern twist. To that end, he added the baobab fruit and South African Cape gooseberry, which added a South African dimension to the spirit.
The 100% grain spirit is distilled in an antique century-old copper pot still named Constance using exceptionally pure water and a careful balance of 9 quality botanicals: juniper, coriander seeds, cassia bark, lemon, cape gooseberry, and baobab. The latter is an homage to his wife’s African homeland, the entire drink a tribute to his family’s distilling heritage. It’s a softer and smoother gin with a unique exotic twist that has won several awards, including the coveted “Double Gold” at the 2019 edition of the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

About Gin
According to Winston Churchill, “The gin and tonic has saved more Englishmen’s lives and minds than all the doctors in the Empire,” referring to the British officers using it to treat malaria in India.
Initially made for medicinal purposes, gin gets most of its flavor from the juniper berries added after the distillation process. It sure has come a long way from the Middle Ages, with the introduction of new botanicals, fruits, and spices, bringing it closer to people of all flavor varieties.
