The Bombay Sapphire Dusk Bar stays in Italy over the next couple of weeks to bring you the Orris Root and Lazy Somer Sapphire cocktail. Firstly, let’s take a closer look at the Orris Root and its importance to flavour and depth of Bombay Sapphire
The ground Orris Root adds the scent and smell of violets to Bombay Sapphire. It creates an exotic fragrance and helps bind together the other botanical flavours and captures the essence of the warm earth of Italy where our Orris Root is sourced from.
It takes 2 years to dry out Orris Root. A bespoke machine grinds the root into a powder so fine that during the spirit distillation, the root’s dry aromas of grass and hay are replaced by the violet fragrance.
Discover the true taste and depth the Orris Root brings to Bombay Sapphire through our latest cocktail the Lazy Somer Sapphire.
