Darwin Gin

A testament to the spirit of exploration and discovery that Charles Darwin embodied during his historic voyage aboard HMS Beagle.

Under the guidance of the garden’s esteemed curator Professor Sam Brockington, juniper, cinnamon leaf, barberry, wild strawberry and baccharis magellanica were chosen to represent the South American leg of the voyage, creating a harmonious blend of past and present.

This remarkable collaboration pays homage to the insatiable curiosity of Charles Darwin, celebrating his enduring legacy and the spirit of adventure that defined his iconic journey aboard the HMS Beagle. Darwin Collection Gin: Americas Herbarium stands as a testament to the profound impact of Darwin's discoveries, encapsulating the very essence of his pioneering work in a luxurious spirit.
