Bishop’s Gin 70cl, 40.7%

Description

Bishop’s Gin 70cl, 40.7% is a London Dry gin from Ponet Spirits, created with a distinctive botanical profile and a story tied to John Ponet, the 16th-century Bishop of Rochester and Winchester. The official producer describes it as a gin created for demanding mixologists and gastronomists, while Master of Malt highlights its historical inspiration and London Dry style.

What gives this gin its personality is its floral, citrus-led freshness alongside a crisp and lightly spicy structure. The official producer states that it is distilled and bottled in London by Charles Maxwell and built around a mix of botanicals including nasturtium flowers, juniper, coriander, lemongrass, angelica, iris root, licorice, almonds, and citrus.

There is also a small detail worth noting for accuracy: the official Ponet Spirits page lists 9 botanicals, while some retailer descriptions mention 8. For product-page accuracy, I would follow the official producer specification.

Why Choose Bishop’s Gin

This is a well-presented London Dry gin with a strong backstory, a more unusual botanical profile than many mainstream brands, and a flavour style that stays classic while adding floral freshness and gentle spice. It suits customers who want something clean and versatile, but not too generic. The point about it feeling less generic is an inference based on the botanical mix and tasting profile.
