Forget the ‘Mother’s Ruin’ of eighteenth century England: in the twenty-first century
gin has become THE spirit of choice, a truly indulgent end-of-day treat featuring
a wealth of exotic ingredients and flavours.
With over 440 individual distilleries in the UK alone crafting subtle combinations of
fruits, herbs and spices to create a variety of boutique botanical gins,
a whole new drinking experience has been born.
As Hayle’s premier Gin Joint, the Copper House Inn offers a rolling menu of
well over 100 different sensational gins from around the world,
including 38 beauties created in Cornwall alone – ‘copper’ and ‘tin’ replaced by ‘gin’?!
Plus, of course, all the traditional stalwarts such as
Gordon's, Tanqueray, Bombay Sapphire, Hendricks and Opihr.
Land of Saints, Rock Samphire, Atlantic Gooseberry & Elderflower, Marmalade Old Tom
– the names are as delightful as the ingredients,
ranging from turkish delight, smoked green tea, lavender and quince
to straw mint, watercress, pink pepper and gorse.
Yes, gorse. In the brave new world of botanical gins, nothing is out of bounds...
Nor is it just the gins which have evolved: the tonics have too.
Besides the traditional tonics of Schweppes, choose the perfect complement to your gin
from Fever Tree’s range.
Try Tarquin’s Blackberry with Fever Tree Elderflower for a fruity treat.
Or Tarquin’s Blood Orange with Fever Tree Mediterranean
to recreate a Cornish summer...
You can even impress your friends with a shot of Cornish Tinkture Rose gin,
which miraculously changes colour from amber to pink when tonic is added
- St Piran would be proud!
