Cambridge Distillery, Anty Gin - 70cl, 42% ABV

Officially the world's most innovative spirit: Cambridge Distillery's Anty Gin is the result of a collaboration with the visionary thinkers of the Nordic Food Lab, and is the very first gin in the world to be made from insects. Each bottle of Anty Gin contains the essence of approximately 62 red wood ants, along with hand-foraged botanicals including juniper, wild wood avens and nettle that complement the sharp citrus notes created by distilling the ants.

Every bottle of Anty Gin is labelled by hand on our Distillery's 1924 typewriter, demonstrating the attention to detail which led this gin to be named World's Most Innovative Alcohol in the 2015 World Beverage Innovation Awards. A 5cl dropper bottle of pure ant distillate is also provided for you to experience the unique flavour of the Formica rufa in isolation – or to intensify the citrus notes in an Anty Gin & Tonic.

Walking through meadows surrounding Cambridge inspired co-founders, William and Lucy, to create gins that capture the taste of the English seasons using botanicals grown in and around their home. Cambridge Distillery still has the same singular aim – to create outstanding gins using the freshest botanicals.

Every gin that Cambridge Distillery has ever released has won international awards for quality, and their unique distillation methods have led to Cambridge Distillery being awarded three consecutive times as the most innovative distillery in the world.
