Botanical
Posted at 4:48am on 15th September 2009

A botanical fresh from our latest stop Java, the climbing cubeb plant bears strong smelling berries which, when crushed and infused in Bombay Sapphire, add a distinctive peppery aroma. These work well in combination with both the Angelica and Orris root botanicals while contributing primarily to the wonderful spicy finish of Bombay Sapphire. Cubeb Berries are actually grown extensively in coffee plantations, well shaded and supported by the coffee trees. They are related to black pepper and also known as “Java Pepper”.

As always when we travel to a new region we bring you a beautifully crafted cocktail and this week is no different. The Bombay Berry Spice has landed in the Bombay Sapphire Dusk Bar.
