Greenhook Ginsmiths craft their gin in a custom-made, copper pot still, designed to work under a high-pressure vacuum. This allows for distillation at a lower temperature, drawing out key flavors from being overcooked. Producing gin this way lets the botanicals shine through for a more aromatic vibrant gin.

A delicious, natural tonic with a uniquely clean and refreshing taste. Subtle botanicals like hand-pressed bitter orange oil from Tanzania blend with pure cane sugar and real quinine sourced from the Congo for a bitter taste balanced by a soft citrus finish.
Quinine is the key ingredient, and the essential bitterness, in tonic water. The brand name Fever-Tree was chosen as it is the colloquial name for the cinchona tree, the bark of which produces quinine. After much research, a specific type of fever tree plantation (known as Cinchona ledgeriana) located on the Rwanda/Congo border, was found to be producing the purest quinine in the world. There was no other option but to source Fever-Tree's quinine from this plantation - the only drinks company to be doing so.
