St John’s Lemsford Gin

Created for our friends at St Johns School Lemsford, this is a special edition of our Garden City Centenary gin, created to mark the 100 year milestone of the founding of Welwyn Garden City.

The original Garden City movement promised the best of both worlds to migrating city workers: the natural beauty, personal space and clean air of the countryside combined with all the opportunities and conveniences of the modern city. And this perfect balance of London sophistication and rural freshness can be found in the flavours of Garden City Gin too. A hearty juniper base - the distinguishing feature of the London dry style - combines with spicy and complex citrus and delicate Hertfordshire lavender (Lavender was historically one of the main exports of Hertfordshire farms). Finally, Garden City Gin is also distilled with sweet, honey-and-lemongrass-scented blossoms harvested from the linden trees which line Welwyn Garden City's most recognisable and famous avenue.
