The Tarquins Cornish Dry Gin – Fresh, crisp and vibrant juniper nose. Light aromatic spice, orange blossom and a hint of cardamom. Creamy, dry with delicate green pine and subtle frangipane notes. Crisp and clean on the finish, with lingering citrus zest and eastern spices.
Nose: The aroma is fresh, crisp, and juniper-forward. You’ll find enough juniper to evoke a boreal forest, along with hints of citrus, citrus blossom, spice, and angelica. These additional botanicals lend roundness, preventing Tarquins Cornish Dry Gin from being a one-note wonder.
Flavor: On the palate, it’s heady with bright citrus. Early pine notes combine with clean, bright lemon zest. As you sip, juniper, neroli, and spice emerge, with cardamom becoming more pronounced as the spirit recedes.
Finish: The finish is moderately long, with a delicate warmth. You’ll notice a faint floral hint of orris root and violets, complemented by a delicate cardamom note.

At just 23 years old, Tarquin, a classically trained chef from the Cordon Bleu in Paris, somehow finds himself sat behind a grey desk in the city of London. He quickly realises this environment is at odds to what really makes him tick and he serves his notice. He starts to scheme. One idea surfaces, then another, then more. Each building in ambition and each driven by the same guiding principle – the passion to create.
He hones his thinking. One idea takes a hold and quickly becomes an all-encompassing vision. Tarquin, supported by the business acumen and drive of his sister Athene, sets his sights on establishing the first Cornish distillery for over 100 years. Armed with a 0.7 ltr copper pot still, a suitcase stuffed with botanicals weird and wonderful, and a prized surfboard, Tarquin makes his return to the West Country and begins his adventure to create what will later be awarded the World’s Best Gin.
