Martin Miller’s Gin, founded in 1999 by Martin Miller and fellow founders, is the world’s first super premium gin widely acknowledged as being the brand which kicked off the renaissance of gin in 1999. It has since been widely awarded and recognised for its superb qualit

Martin Miller’s Gin was created in 1999 by gin lover Martin Miller and his two friends, David Bromige and Andreas Versteegh. All three agreed that the name Martin Miller should be the brand name.

Three friends, Martin Miller, Andreas Versteegh and David Bromige founded Martin Miller’s Gin

It was a sort of an upmarket quirky bed and breakfast and part venue where Martin also lived. From here he managed his projects and received his guests. This is where many of the early tastings, experiments and ideas for Martin Miller’s Gin were developed. Martin occupied all the upper floors of the building. He founded the Martin Miller Academy (of Science and Art) which was a brand event and party venue and also where some bohemian photographs were shot. The brand held lots of events in the bars and cafes in and around Westbourne Grove. It was there too that the three founders discussed all the important developments of the brand. Clearly the name for Martin Miller’s Westbourne Gin primarily came from Westbourne Grove, but the Westbourne is also a river that runs through that part of London (thus existence of a “Grove”) and a short portion of it still runs over ground and into the Serpentine.

Martin Miller’s Gin was created in 1999.

Technically Martin Miller’s Gins are distilled gins, these are produced by redistilling grain spirit with selected botanicals. Specifically at Martin Miller’s Gin we conduct separate twin distillations of the citrus and earthy botanicals and this imparts a unique flavour balance.

Martin Miller’s Gin is distilled in England in a pot still using two separate distillations which imparts a unique balance of citrus and juniper. It is blended to its bottling strength with Icelandic Spring water, it is this water which gives Martin Miller’s Gin its gentle bouquet and trademark softness.

What is the annual turnover or profit of Martin Miller’s gin?

Martin Miller’s Gin is distilled in Langley, England’s “Black Country” (So named in the 19th Century, during the Industrial Revolution due to the smoke from the many thousands of ironworking foundries and forges plus also the working of the shallow and 30ft thick coal seams) using superior ingredients and according to the strict indications of our production team.

All the botanicals we use to create the unique taste of Martin Miller’s Gin are natural.

Martin Miller’s Gin has a classic palette of 10 gin botanicals; juniper, coriander, cassia, orris root, angelica, liquorice root, cinnamon and nutmeg along with the required dried citrus peels, lemon and orange. By distilling the citrus botanicals (dried citrus peels, lemon and orange) separately to the earthier (juniper, coriander, cassia, orris root, angelica, liquorice root, cinnamon and nutmeg) it creates a better balance between the two, allowing the citrus flavours to shine through thus giving the gin a refreshing, modern twist on tradition.

Icelandic Spring water is the purest in the world. Thanks to this it does not require any processing or demineralisation before blending with the spirit. This gives the brand its characteristic soft bouquet and mouthfeel. Icelandic water is the closest you can get to naturally occurring H2O.

“An unopened bottle of gin stored properly (upright, and away from sunlight and extreme temperatures & humidity) will technically last and will not go bad. However it will lose its characteristics progressively over time and not be as per the exact specifications of the master distiller on the day it was produced.
Once opened we recommend to enjoy the gin during the following 2 years, the liquid inside is exposed to air and eventually it will start to loose character.”

A version of Martin Miller’s Gin that would give a more ‘old school’ authenticity to a bartender’s classic repertoire of cocktails and help create more complex, fully flavoured inventions.

Its name derived from the location of Martin’s residences in Westbourne Grove in London, the part of town where the brand was first conceived.

Westbourne is bright and soft, and has attractive, complex aromas of pepper and cassia with long and dry finish.

It is the ideal component for all classic cocktails and makes the perfect dry Martini.

The ABV of Martin Miller’s Westbourne is 45,2% VOL

It is an innovative aged gin resulting from years of research into the best barrel ageing process. The delicate nature of the gin, requires the most delicate of ageing which is only possible over 9 moon cycles in Iceland.

Its name derived from its ageing time which is 9 moons cycles (circa 9 months).

The oak adds a slight vanilla sweetness to Martin Miller’s 9 Moons Gin, that in turn enhances and amplifies the gin botanicals that lie behind the essential juniper. Citrus notes and some light oak on the finish.

Iceland’s cold and surprisingly dry climate proved to be the optimal atmosphere for the ageing of gin, presenting many advantages. These conditions gave the ability to slow down the ageing process significantly and allowed to precisely measure the progress of the complex and intriguing spirit.

No, because at Martin Miller’s Gin we choose to allow our barrels to age in the regular temperature of the Icelandic climate. Iceland’s weather plays a critical part in the outcome and quality of the final product.

The complexity of the flavour 9 Moons means that it should be tasted neat or on the rocks but also it is interesting to use it in cocktail exploration.

We recommend that Martin Miller’s 9 Moons Gin is drunk neat, at room temperature but you could also try it frozen or with some ice cubes to discover all of its aspects

Martin Miller’s 9 Moons Barrel Aged Gin uses heavily toasted French oak barrels from the forests of Allier and Limousin. The same barrel quality is used for ageing the finest wines.

The amonunt of bottles of 9 Moons are produced in each batch is 2.000 bottles
