A new super-premium gin from Scotland launches to consumers in the UK today. Taking its name from Tulchan Estate in Scotland, Tulchan Gin is a small batch gin distilled in Speyside, with flavours inspired by the terroir of the Estate located on the banks of the River Spey.
Born on one of the most admired estates in Scotland, Tulchan Gin is inspired by its natural surroundings with botanicals including sloe berries, elderflower and blackberry leaves which are found on Tulchan Estate. One unusual botanical within Tulchan Gin is asparagus, which provides the gin with a bitter edge and long finish. The distillation takes place in Speyside using the Estate’s recipe.
Tulchan Gin is presented in a luxury embossed blue glass bottle with tartan running down the side, reflecting the gin’s Scottish heritage. The label on the front of the bottle includes an illustration of the Estate’s brand icon, The Grouse Piper playing the bagpipes. The Grouse Piper is used to represent the proud, independent wild birds that live amongst the wild heather. A further nod to Tulchan Gin’s Scottish roots is the wooden cork stopper which has a Scottish thistle stamp. Tulchan Gin is a robust, juniper forward London Dry gin elevated with the Scottish botanicals that shine through.
Tulchan Gin is part of the Stoli Group portfolio of wine and spirits brands and is distributed in the UK by Indie Brands, part of Amber Beverage Group. Tom Jones, Ultra-Premium Spirits Ambassador, will be working with trade accounts and retailers to support the UK brand launch. Tom is based in Scotland and is a regular visitor to Tulchan Estate.
