Salcombe Gin's latest collaboration, image from Salcombe Gin.
Following the recent release of its latest Voyager Series range, ‘Island Queen’, Salcombe Gin is once again celebrating success. Voyager Series ‘Mischief’, which was created in collaboration with Mark Hix MBE, has just been awarded a Double Gold in the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2019.
Commenting on this impressive achievement, Angus Lugsdin, Salcombe Gin co-founder, said: “When we launched Salcombe Gin, our flagship ‘Start Point’ was awarded a Double Gold in the 2017 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. We’re delighted, two years on, to have achieved the same high standard for ‘Mischief’ from our Voyager Series.”
Founded in 2000, the San Francisco World Spirits Competition is one of the oldest competitions of its kind. It has become one of the world’s most respected spirits competitions due to its esteemed judging panel and international following.
This latest award follows the news that Salcombe Gin Voyager Series ‘Mischief’ gin was awarded the ‘World’s Best Gin Design’ in The World Gin Awards, as well as ‘Best Limited Edition Design’ and ‘Best Presentation Design’. Voyager Series ‘Arabella’, which was developed in partnership with Michael Caines MBE, was named ‘Best New Launch Design’ in the same awards.
Each release from the Salcombe Gin Voyager Series is created in collaboration with a world-renowned chef or iconic winemaker, each of which reflect their individual personality and style. The Voyager Series commenced with ‘Arabella’, created in partnership with Michael Caines MBE, followed by ‘Mischief’ in collaboration with Mark Hix MBE with the final 2018 release being ‘Guiding Star’, a partnership with Niepoort. The latest addition, which was released on 28 March 2019, is ‘Island Queen’, which has been created in collaboration with acclaimed chef Monica Galetti.
These limited edition gins are presented in a stunning white ceramic bottle, featuring an embossed outline of the iconic gin pennant and a bespoke debossed copper stopper commissioned for this series.
Salcombe Gin Voyager Series (£65 a bottle) gins are available online at salcombegin.com, from the Salcombe Gin Distillery and Victuallers, and at selected independent retailers. For more information visit www.salcombegin.com or email ilovegin@salcombegin.com or call 01548 288180.
