Lantic Gin

Lantic Gin is a wild-foraged artisan gin from Cornwall. Named after the picturesque Lantic Bay, it is foraged for flavour, with each small batch given its distinctive taste by wild herbs and native botanicals bound by the seasons and cycles of Cornwall. Lantic Gin is delicately crafted in small batches by Alex Palmer-Samborne at the Skylark Distillery; the bird whose song is the soundtrack to so many foraging expeditions along the rugged coasts, meandering paths, and cliff-top meadows of Cornwall. Having grown up in the South-West, Alex is on a mission to explore the wild side of gin by making seasonal spirits from locally foraged botanicals and pure Cornish spring water, invoking artisan skills belonging to pre-industrial craft and our foraging past. The Original Lantic Gin contains six wild botanical treasures - heather, rock samphire, gorse flower, apple mint, water mint, and lemon thyme are harvested at dawn, then skilfully combined with nine classic gin botanicals to create an exceptionally smooth gin that captures the seasonal scents and seaside character of south Cornwall. It won Silver at the 2019 International Wine and Spirits Competition with a score of 91 points, ranking it amongst the top gins in the South-West and ranked 6th in the world at the International Wine and Spirits competition ‘Gin and Tonic’ category in 2020. The brand is available at selected bars and specialist retailers across the country. For more information and to buy online, visit lanticgin.com, or follow us on Instagram @Lanticgin.
