Hendrick’s Another Gin is a limited release from the Hendrick’s Gin Palace in Girvan the same dual-still distillation base as the core expression, but with orange blossom and cacao nibs replacing the signature cucumber and rose infusions, producing a brighter, citrus-forward profile with a gentle bittersweet depth that makes it both immediately familiar as Hendrick’s and distinctly different from any previous expression.

Master Distiller Lesley Gracie’s instinct with Another Gin was to explore what happens when the two most iconic Hendrick’s ingredients cucumber and rose are removed and replaced with botanicals from a different sensory register. Orange blossom contributes a soft floral perfume that is more aromatic and perfumed than rose, with a natural citrus sweetness; cacao nibs add a dry bittersweet depth that has no equivalent in the standard range. The juniper backbone of the dual-still distillation (Bennett pot still for body, Carter Head still for delicacy) remains, anchoring the expression in gin territory while the new botanical pairing takes it somewhere unexpected. Bottled at 44% two proof points above the standard Hendrick’s for more botanical intensity.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Orange blossom leads with a soft floral perfume more aromatic and citrus-driven than the rose of the standard expression followed by a hint of cocoa
• Palate: Gentle juniper backbone with waves of citrus, a dry cacao depth, and velvety botanicals balanced and lively
• Finish: Clean and crisp with a fragrant floral-citrus lift and a gentle bittersweet close from the cacao nibs
