Scotland has long been one of the planet’s gin powerhouses, with Tanqueray and Hendrick’s dominating most bars from here to eternity. Yet, far off the mainland, in the Outer Hebrides, one of Scotland’s smallest gin distilleries has slowly been winning over serious gin connoisseurs from the UK to the U.S. and beyond with its utterly ethereal mouthfeel and absolutely gorgeous bottle.

The Isle of Harris gin is a true spirit of the sea with a salinity that makes its way through in every sip (and makes it the ultimate Dirty Martini base). The process starts with hand-gathered local sugar kelp that functions as the core botanical along with juniper. It’s then softened with fresh and low-mineral rainwater and bottled by hand at the distillery in a custom bottle made from sea glass.

But beyond the beauty of the bottle, it’s the exquisite grace and delicacy of the gin that has everyone talking. Subtle notes of juniper with a haunting citrus element that quickly smooths out into the maritime flavors of the sugar kelp. There’s a bit of spice on the finish, but the entire journey feels as seamless as silk, which is why gin novices seem to love the Isle of Harris equally as much as the experienced crowd.

If you’ve yet to try what is by far the most exciting new gin on the market, now’s your chance. See what the rest of the industry is buzzing over and make the Martini of your life this weekend.
