Gin Lane 1751 Victoria Pink

The Bloomsbury Club is the creator behind this award winning gin. They draw inspiration from the Bloomsbury Group, which was an influential group of associated English writers, intellectuals, philosophers and artists, the best known members of which included Virginia Woolf, John Maynard Keynes, E. M. Forster and Lytton Strachey.

The Club is a group of inquisitive drinks industry veterans with a passion to recreate a range of London Gins with historical accuracy and relevance to the Victorian era. To accomplish this, a partnership was forged with 8th generation London distiller, Charles Maxwell of Thames Distillers, based in Clapham, London. Gin Lane 1751 is the embodiment of a classic Victorian style gin in its taste profile, juxtaposed with accurate label recreation of the period to create a range of four crafted varietals. For your edification, we introduce Gin Lane 1751, Victorian Inginuity. 

This season of rosé now includes a gin. Pink gin, a Victorian-era throwback first said to have been concocted by the Royal Navy, achieves its pale salmon color from the botanicals and bitters used to mellow the spirit’s strong juniper profile. This English gin, made in pot stills in small batches, gets its name from the Gin Act of 1751, legislation designed to restrict the sale of “demon” gin to the poor. Consider it for a blushing martini or gimlet, or simply serve it on the rocks with a spritz of lime and just a splash of good tonic.
