About this deal

Or, perhaps you just like cool gin… Whatever your profession, you NEED to know about this mind-blowing ginnovation (we’re leaving a moment here for you to applaud that incredible portmanteau). All of this is to say, that it is exciting to see that the brand has just released a new gin for spring 2023. A beautiful deep indigo colour, this gin becomes a warm violet with the addition of tonic or citrus. Inspired by the famous afternoon tea service at the Fairmont Empress Hotel, Empress 1908 Gin is made by Victoria Distillers in Canada. As its name suggests, Pink Marmalade Gin is made in micro batches using a signature salted marmalade made with grapefruit which is then infused with 12 botanicals including pink peppercorns, almond and chamomile.

The extraordinary violet colour of this Canadian gin from Victoria Distillers is jaw-droppingly attractive and when mixed with a splash of tonic it morphs in front of you in the glass through all manner of the shade of purple. Since 1908, travellers from around the world have fallen in love with the Fairmont Empress Hotel for its majestic grandeur, picturesque vistas, and incomparable afternoon tea service. Many of the gins on this list start as a dark indigo colour, but Pink Marmalade Gin begins as a much more vibrant Bombay Sapphire-esque blue and turns a light shade of violet. Additionally, the gin is inspired by the company’s location at Victoria in, British Columbia, known as The City of Gardens.A total of eight botanicals are small batch distilled, including rose petal, coriander seed and cinnamon bark but the striking colour is gained from the infusion of Fairmont Empress tea and the beautiful butterfly pea flower.
