    From Source to Spirit

    Production Process

    🌿Step 1

    Botanical Selection

    Ongoing

    Juniper berries, coriander, angelica root, citrus peel and other botanicals are carefully sourced and inspected for quality.

    🌾Step 2

    Neutral Spirit

    Continuous

    High-quality grain neutral spirit is distilled to a high purity, providing a clean canvas for the botanical infusion.

    🧪Step 3

    Maceration

    12–48 hours

    Selected botanicals are steeped in the neutral spirit, allowing their essential oils and flavours to infuse over time.

    🔥Step 4

    Distillation

    6–8 hours

    The botanical-infused spirit is redistilled in copper pot stills. Vapour infusion baskets may also be used for delicate botanicals.

    ✂️Step 5

    The Cut

    Critical moment

    The distiller makes precise cuts between heads, hearts and tails, selecting only the finest heart of the distillation run.

    🍾Step 6

    Bottling

    Days

    The gin is rested briefly, diluted to bottling strength with pure water, and bottled — most gins are unaged.

    The Story of Bombay Spirits (Laverstoke Mill)

    Bombay Sapphire gin is crafted at Laverstoke Mill, a stunning restored paper mill in Hampshire designed by Thomas Heatherwick. The distillery uses a unique vapour infusion process where spirit passes through a copper basket containing 10 hand-selected botanicals from around the world, creating its distinctively smooth, aromatic character.
