Elaboration
Gin Bulldog is handcrafted in London using traditional methods, with 4 distillations and triple filtration in copper stills, incorporating the aromas of 12 selected botanical ingredients from 9 different countries. The botanicals used include juniper, lotus leaves, lemon peel, coriander, licorice, cassia, angelica, orris root, poppy seed, and dragon eye (believed to have aphrodisiac and medicinal properties).
A total of 12 botanicals, along with neutral grain, are placed inside a copper pot, allowing the botanicals to macerate before distillation. Through this method, vapor passes through a condenser and is then liquefied to separate the volatile compounds from the distillate. The resulting liquid is combined again with the wheat and diluted with demineralized water.

Recommended Consumption of Bulldog Gin
Bulldog Gin is perfect for making cocktails. To make a perfect Gin and Tonic with Bulldog Gin, you can combine it with the following tonics: Schweppes Azahar and Lavender, Bö Dry, Ledger's Licorice, 1724, Fever Tree, Markham, and Indi.
The preparation would involve using ice to chill the glass, then discarding it and using one or more large ice cubes for the drink. Serve the gin and finish with the tonic, using a spoon to prevent the bubbles from dissipating. Except when using Schweppes tonic, as its higher concentration of carbonation makes it recommended to pour directly over the Bulldog Gin.
