The Story
Jamun The Himalayan Juniper Dry Gin is an artisanal Indian craft gin produced by the historic Mohan Meakin distillery in Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh. Unlike traditional gins made with common juniper, this bold and distinctive spirit is crafted utilizing handpicked Himalayan Juniper (Juniperus Recurva) alongside pure Himalayan spring water. It is uniquely infused with the rich, tart-sweet essence of Jamun (Indian black plum), which gives the gin its name. This is harmoniously balanced with a complementary botanical blend that includes coriander, mint, lemon verbena, cubebs, orange peel, and cinnamon. On the palate, it delivers a crisp, bright mix of resinous pine, earthy berry tones, and vibrant citrus, culminating in a gentle, peppery, and subtly sweet floral finish. It is highly refreshing when mixed with a premium tonic or used to elevate classic gin cocktails.
Food Pairing: Spicy tandoori chicken, vegetable samosas, fresh cucumber salads, goat cheese tarts, and citrus-forward desserts like lemon cheesecake.
