Bathtub Gin

During American Prohibition, many desperate home distillers lacked proper equipment and resorted to whatever was at hand, including the bathtub itself. Bathtub Gin carries that honest, almost self-deprecating name forward as a tribute to this improvised, homemade tradition. Today it isn't actually made in a bathtub, but through a cold-compounding method that deliberately skips the subsequent distillation of botanicals.

About Bathtub Gin

Bathtub Gin is an English gin from Ableforth's, made using a cold-compounding method and named after Prohibition-era improvised home gin.

History & Background

The name Bathtub Gin refers directly to American Prohibition, when homemade gin was occasionally mixed in bathtubs by desperate home distillers lacking proper distillation equipment. While the name is a fond, almost self-deprecating tribute to this improvised past, the modern Bathtub Gin from English house Ableforth's is a far more considered affair. The gin is made through cold compounding of juniper, cardamom, orange peel, and cloves, a method that deliberately skips the subsequent distillation many other gins undergo. The result is a rich, spicy gin that insists on holding onto its rustic, homemade origin story, even as production is in reality far more refined.

Production & Style

The gin is made by cold-compounding juniper, cardamom, orange peel and cloves without subsequent redistillation of the botanicals.

Signature Style

Spiced, Full-Bodied, Aromatic
The taste offers a full-bodied, spiced character with clear cardamom and clove notes.
