Overview

Handcrafted in copper pot stills at Victoria Distillers on Vancouver Island, this indigo-hued gin gets its striking color from butterfly pea blossom, steeped alongside the signature black tea blend served at Victoria's famed Empress Hotel. Eight botanicals — juniper, grapefruit peel, and rose among them — bring bright citrus, floral lift, and a warm herbal earthiness to a soft, rounded palate. Bottled at 85 proof, the gin performs a color-shifting trick with tonic or citrus, turning lavender, pink, or fuchsia in the glass. Built for a showy Empress & Tonic or a playful twist on a classic gin cocktail.

Best gin ever & it’s purple

"I received this as a gift and it’s the very best gin I’ve ever had. It’s not harsh and mixed with tonic it’s sheer perfection! It even changes color when you add ice and tonic to it! Top notch gin!"

— Kim B. (5/5)
