Spring 2026

Spring, distilled. Bright, fresh, and delicate. On the nose, lime zest and a whisper of cucumber. The flavour unfolds with a light citrus sparkle, deepens with tender rhubarb and wildflower honeycomb, settles into fresh herbal notes, and finishes with a crisp mineral edge that lingers.

Our 2026 release comprises 100 perfect bottles.

The process

Each botanical in Spring 2026 is cold-distilled individually at our Kensal Green distillery. Rhubarb is delicate. Lime is volatile. Honeycomb releases its character differently to sea salt. By distilling each one separately, we give every botanical the conditions it needs to express itself.

Cold distillation protects what heat would destroy. It's a slower, more demanding way to work. But it's the reason the lime tastes like lime, and the rhubarb arrives exactly as it should.

As a family-run operation, we keep production small by intention, not constraint. Every bottle is filled, numbered, and sent out by hand. Spring 2026 is limited to one hundred bottles.

The season passes, but the bottle remains.

Tasting notes

Nose: lime zest, fresh cucumber, a whisper of spring blossom.
Palate: tender rhubarb, wildflower honeycomb, light citrus.
Finish: clean and mineral, with a crisp herbal linger.

How to serve

Serve long over ice with classic tonic and a spiral of cucumber. Nothing competes, everything complements.

For something with more intent, shake into a Spring Tomatini with fresh basil, lime juice, and a pinch of sea salt. The mineral finish holds beautifully against acidity.

Questions worth asking

Why only 100 bottles?

Because beyond that, something is lost. Not just in quality control, but in intention. Every bottle of Patience is numbered by hand, filled by hand, and sent out into the world with full awareness of where it's going. A hundred bottles means we know every batch intimately. It means nothing is rushed, nothing is scaled, nothing is compromised. When your bottle is gone, it's gone — and the next season begins.

What does cold distillation actually mean?

Most gin is distilled at high temperatures, which is efficient but brutal on delicate botanicals. Cold distillation works under reduced pressure, which lowers the boiling point of liquids significantly. This means we can extract the volatile aromatic compounds — the ones that give each botanical its character — without destroying them with heat. The result is a gin that tastes closer to the ingredient itself. Fresher. More alive. More honest.

Why does the season matter?

Each Patience release is built around a feeling — the particular lightness of Spring, the warmth of Summer, the quiet of Winter. The botanicals we choose are selected to evoke that mood precisely. Not to represent the season literally, but to capture its character. This is the gin equivalent of terroir — the idea, borrowed from the greatest wine traditions, that what surrounds a thing, the moment, the hands, the intention, becomes part of what ends up in the glass. Like a great vintage, each expression is unrepeatable. The season passes. The bottle remains.

Why distil every botanical separately?

Because every ingredient has its own personality, and its own demands. Rhubarb is delicate. Lime is volatile. Honeycomb releases its character at a different temperature to sea salt. If you distil them together, you get a compromise — a blended signal where the quieter notes are drowned out by the louder ones. By distilling each botanical alone, we give every ingredient the conditions it needs to express itself fully. The final gin is then a precise blend of individual distillates, each at its best. It takes considerably longer. It is absolutely worth it.
