Harry Hobbs’ old recipe dates back to 1870, we have based the 2017 recipe on five of his original botanicals, one of which is still a family secret, and added Lime Flower and Lemon Peel to give it a citrus twist.
Beginning with fragrant floral notes and soft marshmallow, zesty citrus adds clarity and bite amongst savoury juniper and sharp Orris root.
Please drink responsibly.
The Chief Medical Officers' guidance for both men and women recommends adults do not regularly drink more than 14 units per week
