BOMBAY SAPPHIRE Premier Cru Murcian Lemon is a small-batch gin, handcrafted to capture the bright and vibrant aromatic flavours of Murcia’s most exquisite citrus. In southeast Spain, where the finest Murcian lemons, mandarins and sweet Navel oranges grow, Bombay Sapphire works closely with local suppliers and farmers to sustainably source the most exquisite citrus. During the late season’s annual harvest, using techniques passed down through generations, dedicated suppliers and farmers handpick and hand-peel each fruit at its most ripe and allow them to dry naturally under the Mediterranean sun, capturing only the brightest, most aromatic citrus oils that harvest has to offer. In each small batch, the master distiller selects the precise cut of the distillation to ensure each-and-every bottle is a fitting tribute to the region, the suppliers and farmers’ craftsmanship, and the supreme quality of that harvest ensuring the same outstanding liquid is produced each year. Against the signature BOMBAY SAPPHIRE taste, this new gin beautifully balances sweet orange and mandarin, while allowing the vibrancy of the signature Murcian lemons to shine through as the hero of this exquisite liquid.
