🌿 Product Description
Bombay Sapphire is a stylish London Dry gin housed in its iconic sapphire-blue bottle. Crafted using a vapor-infusion technique: pure grain spirit is distilled and its vapors rise through perforated copper baskets containing ten botanicals—extracting delicate aromatics without boiling them. The result is a gin known for its clarity and refined balance. Water from Lake Vyrnwy in Wales is added to adjust strength. Difford's Guide+12Wikipedia+12The Liquor Store Jackson Hole+12
