Indian Summer Saffron Infused Gin 70cl, 46%

Description

Indian Summer Saffron Infused Gin 70cl, 46% is a Scottish gin from Duncan Taylor, built around the distinctive addition of saffron, which gives the spirit its warm aromatic character and its recognisable golden-yellow hue. It is bottled at 46% ABV, a higher-than-usual strength that helps carry its botanical profile with extra clarity and texture.

What makes this bottle especially appealing is the way it balances familiar gin structure with something more visually and flavourfully individual. Duncan Taylor describes a botanical mix including juniper berries, coriander seed, lemon peel, orange peel, saffron, angelica bark, almonds, cassia, liquorice root and orris root, giving the gin a classic backbone with a richer, warmer edge. That distinctive identity has also been recognised in competition, including a Bronze Medal at the World Gin Awards 2018.

Why Choose Indian Summer Saffron Infused Gin 70cl, 46%

This bottle stands out because it is not simply a standard dry gin in a different label. The saffron infusion gives it a more unusual aromatic profile and a naturally eye-catching colour, while the 46% strength keeps it expressive and full of character in the glass.

It is also a strong choice for buyers who want a gin that feels both versatile and distinctive. The core botanical structure keeps it grounded in classic gin style, but the saffron adds a warmer, more individual twist that helps it stand out in cocktails, long serves or simple pours over ice.

Ideal For.

This bottle is ideal for gin drinkers who enjoy citrus, spice and a more aromatic style than a standard London dry profile.

It is ideal for gifting thanks to its striking golden colour, elegant presentation and distinctive saffron identity.

It is also ideal for buyers looking for a Scottish gin with recognised quality and a character that stands apart from more conventional juniper-led bottles.

Collector’s Note

Indian Summer is more about distinctive identity than scarcity-led collectability. Its appeal comes from the saffron infusion, the unusual natural colour and the connection to Duncan Taylor, a name better known to many buyers through whisky. That makes it a smart bottle for a spirits shelf that mixes classic categories with more individual releases.

It also has lasting display appeal because it is instantly recognisable. For buyers who like keeping a few standout gin bottles for gifting, presentation or a varied back bar, this is the kind of bottle that adds visual interest and a clearly different flavour angle.
