Beefeater's
brand name was coined from one of the most elite groups of soldiers to have
walked the streets of London, the Yeoman Warders or “Beefeaters.” as they
were commonly called. The Beefeaters were historically known as the guardian
of the Royal Family and Crown Jewels of England. The Beefeaters take its
inspiration from the Beefeater’s history, as founder James Burrough developed
his first orange gin over 150 years ago.
Beefeater’s first orange flavoured gin was created in 1876. James Burrough
hand-selected oranges from London’s Covent Garden Market for the perfect
citrus flavour, inspiring Beefeater’s new blood orange gin today.
Beefeater Blood Orange starts with the same process as Beefeater London Dry
Gin, The World’s Most Awarded Gin. The
trick of the perfect dry gin lies in stillman’s refined sense of smell and
attention to the readings of the hydrometer analysing the still. They use
this to select a perfect middle cut of a great-tasting gin.
The spirit has a bright, appealing orange colour. At the same time, the
juniper and angelica present adds a classic gin flavour to the overall taste,
enhancing the zest of juicy blood orange. From the moment a bottle of
Beefeater Blood Orange is opened, the drinker encounters fresh citrus and
tangy blood orange aroma with a hint of juniper. A long, rich finish ensures
that the drink is fully enjoyed from beginning to end.
It’s been made with cocktails and spritzes in mind, so trying it in one
certainly wouldn’t go amiss. A wonderful blood orange gin from Beefeater with
a taste that’s just as vibrant as it looks!
