At the 2021 London Spirits Competition, The Three Brothers Bathtub Gin was awarded a silver medal, making it the only spirit from Lebanon to be awarded at the competition. The gin is a result of an American production style of gin combined with Lebanese ingredients. It utilizes juniper berries and 21 other botanicals in the maceration and infusion process.
Handcrafted in small batches with natural produce handpicked after years of trial and error to formulate a blend suitable for a classic gin profile. Botanicals of the carob fruit, jujube fruit, olive leaves, coriander seeds, rose petals, cedars leaves, pine barks, hawthorn leaves, pistachio, grapefruit peel, lavender, grapefruits, red apples and cinnamon along with juniper berries have been meticulously combined to bring an experience of Lebanese taste and aroma.
