Scotland's Most Iconic Gin — In a Magnum Format for Serious Entertaining

Hendrick's is the gin that changed everything. Distilled in small batches at the Girvan Distillery in Ayrshire, Scotland, using a rare combination of two antique stills — a Bennett and a Carter-Head — Hendrick's achieves a flavour profile that no other gin can replicate. The signature infusion of Bulgarian rose petals and fresh cucumber is added after distillation, creating a gin that is unmistakably floral, refreshingly smooth, and endlessly versatile. The 1.75 litre format at HK$1,288 is the ultimate choice for entertaining, gifting, or stocking a serious bar — exceptional value per serve compared to the standard bottle.

Tasting Notes

Delicate and aromatic on the nose with fresh cucumber, rose petal, and elderflower, underpinned by classic juniper and a whisper of citrus. The palate is silky and smooth — the dual-still distillation gives Hendrick's a creaminess that sets it apart from sharper London Dry styles. Floral and herbal notes of chamomile and yarrow weave through the mid-palate, with a clean, refreshing finish that is long, gentle, and utterly distinctive.

Signature Cocktails

Hendrick's Classic G&T

• 50ml Hendrick's Gin
• 150ml premium tonic water
• Ice
• Garnish: 3 thin slices of fresh cucumber

Method: Fill a large balloon glass with ice. Pour in the Hendrick's, then gently top with tonic water. Stir once to combine. Garnish generously with fresh cucumber slices. The cucumber garnish is not optional — it echoes the gin's own infusion and transforms a simple G&T into something genuinely special. With 1.75 litres on hand, you'll never run short at a gathering.

Hendrick's Rose Smash

• 50ml Hendrick's Gin
• 20ml fresh lemon juice
• 15ml simple syrup
• 4–5 fresh mint leaves
• Ice
• Garnish: cucumber ribbon, rose petal

Method: Gently muddle the mint leaves in a shaker. Add gin, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Fill with ice and shake hard for 10–12 seconds. Double-strain into a chilled rocks glass over fresh ice. Garnish with a cucumber ribbon and a rose petal. Perfect for batch-making at parties — simply scale up the recipe and pre-mix in a large jug, topping with ice and garnish per glass.

Life's too short for bad Gin.
