As always we’re now going to take a closer look at what China has added to Bombay Sapphire – Liquorice.

Liquorice roots add depth to the lighter flavours of the other botanicals. Only the finest root is ground into a fine powder and used in the distillation process, accentuating this cool and highly distinctive aspect. It releases an aroma reminiscent of anise and fennel but is considered stronger. Liquorice helps to bind together the other botanical flavours.

The Greek word for Liquorice is “sweet root”. It was founded in the tomb of Tutankhamun. It is considered by experts in their field to be neither sweet, sour, salty or bitter and has a slightly different effect for all who taste it.
