Hendrick’s Sunspell 1L

Hendrick’s Sunspell 1 L

Hendrick’s Sunspell 1 L refreshes the legacy of its sister expressions by capturing vibrant citrus and delicate floral character in a larger format. Inspired by Mediterranean summer afternoons, this limited-edition gin combines Sicilian lemon zest with rose petals and hibiscus to create a bright, uplifting spirit with elegance and balance.

Origins & Botanical Craft

• Distilled in Scotland, using Hendrick’s signature dual still process for refined balance and clarity.

• Infuses fresh Sicilian lemon peel harvested at peak ripeness to extract vivid citrus oils.

• Blends in artistic touches of rose petal and hibiscus flower, offering floral depth and a soft pink hue in lighter pours.

• Accompanied by traditional gin botanicals—juniper berries, coriander seed, angelica, orris, and a touch of cucumber essence for freshness.

• Bottled at 43.4% ABV to preserve aromatic intensity, structure, and sipping satisfaction.

Aroma & Tasting Profile

• Nose: Bright citrus zest leads the way with lemon oil and floral sweetness; rose petals and hibiscus bring soft perfume to the bouquet.

• Palate: A vibrant citrus surge balanced by petal-soft floral nuance. Juniper is present but understated, allowing lemon and hibiscus to shine. Subtle cucumber freshness supports the mid-palate.

• Finish: Medium length and elegant, with lingering zest, florals, and clean dryness—balanced and refreshing without being overly sweet.

Serving & Mixology Ideas

• Sunspell Gin & Tonic: Highball over ice with premium tonic; garnish with lemon wheel and edible rose petals for visual and aromatic flair.

• Floral Citrus Spritz: Mix gin with lightly chilled sparkling wine and soda water; garnish with hibiscus flower or lemon twist—bright and balanced.

• Hibiscus Gimlet: Lemon juice, simple syrup, and a splash of hibiscus infusion shaken with Sunspell—served up with a lemon strip.

• Neat or on the rocks: Best served lightly chilled in a tulip glass to release its sunny aromatics.

Ideal For

• Seasonal entertaining, brunch, poolside gatherings, or sunset sipping.

• Collectors seeking limited-edition expressions from a respected distillery.

• Mixologists exploring floral and citrus-forward cocktail profiles.

• Gifting to fans of citrus gin with refined balance and thoughtful design.

What Makes It Stand Out

• The use of fresh Sicilian lemon peel, rather than dried zest, intensifies natural citrus notes.

• Floral infusion with hibiscus and rose petal is elegantly integrated—not overpowering.

• Hendrick’s dual still method ensures clarity, lightness, and botanical separation.

• The 1 L format offers volume for entertaining without compromising boutique character.

• Reflects Liqir’s commitment to offering unique, expression-driven spirits with clear storytelling.

Hendrick’s Sunspell 1 L is a celebration of summer in a bottle—bright, floral, and unmistakably joyous on the palate. Perfect for seasonal menus, elevated cocktails, or as a collectible bottle for those who seek freshness alongside craftsmanship.
