Lyme Bay Elderflower & Cucumber Gin captures the English countryside — heady elderflower aromas and succulent cucumber over a foundational gin of juniper, coriander and angelica. From Devon's Axe Valley winery, the same producer behind the UK's best-selling sloe gin.

The nose is heady elderflower with succulent cucumber — fresh and mouth-watering. On the palate, crisp gin with lush floral elderflower and cucumber freshness, structured around juniper, coriander and angelica. The finish is floral and fresh.

The Bottom Line

Lyme Bay Elderflower & Cucumber earns a 7 for a genuinely English garden gin. The elderflower-cucumber combination is a classic for good reason, and Lyme Bay's winery expertise ensures the botanicals are balanced rather than overwhelming. Best with premium tonic and cucumber garnish.
