Jaisalmer Indian Craft Gin is making a striking impression on London’s luxury spirits scene, capturing the imagination of discerning drinkers with its evocative blend of heritage, craftsmanship and exotic botanicals. Distilled in copper pot stills at the Rampur Distillery in the foothills of the Himalayas, this gin is a tribute to the imperial age of the Maharajas. Its flavour profile is a vibrant tapestry of Indian terroir: piney juniper, zesty orange and lemon peel, peppery cubeb berries, and the delicate earthiness of Darjeeling green tea and vetiver. The result is a smooth, aromatic spirit with a lingering, spiced finish that’s both classic and unmistakably Indian.
As interest in Indian craft spirits continues to rise in London’s high-end hospitality circles, Jaisalmer Gin is leading the charge—its presence in top-tier bars and events a testament to its growing prestige. This July, it joins forces with Hutong at Cocktails in the City, a partnership that promises to be as dazzling as the views from Level 33 of The Shard. Hutong, renowned for its fiery Northern Chinese cuisine and dramatic skyline vistas, is a must-visit destination for those seeking a dining experience that’s as theatrical as it is delicious. Its Shanghai Bar, with its artisan cocktails and sultry ambience, provides the perfect stage for Jaisalmer’s nuanced spirit to shine.
Expect a cocktail collaboration that bridges continents—Indian botanicals meeting Chinese spice, all served with a side of London’s glittering skyline. Whether you’re a gin aficionado or simply in search of something extraordinary, this pairing is not to be missed.
See you at the bar.
