The name comes from \u003cstrong\u003eAurantium\u003c\/strong\u003e, the citrus genus that includes the bitter orange, and citrus is the thread that runs through the recipe alongside the juniper backbone every gin is built on. It is presented the Blackadder way: \u003cstrong\u003eno chill filtration\u003c\/strong\u003e and no cosmetic processing between still and bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost gin on the shelf is engineered for smoothness at 40% and filtered until nothing sticks out. Aurantia takes the opposite position. The higher strength keeps the botanicals loud, and skipping chill filtration keeps the heavier citrus and juniper oils in the liquid, the same oils most producers strip out for clarity. It is a purist's gin from a bottler that applies whisky discipline to everything it releases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"twl-brand\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Blackadder\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlackadder International\u003c\/strong\u003e was founded in 1995 by Robin Tucek and remains a family operation, with his daughter Hannah and son Michael working alongside him. Their guiding principle is simple: \u003cstrong\u003ethe cask is king\u003c\/strong\u003e. Nothing is chill filtered, nothing is coloured, and nothing is dressed up between the producer and your glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlackadder is best known as a Scottish independent whisky bottler, but the same philosophy extends to a small stable of other spirits: rums, and this gin, distilled in the Netherlands to Blackadder's specification. Aurantia gets the same treatment as their single casks: honest strength, minimal intervention, and a label that tells you what is in the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"twl-grid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"twl-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDistillation profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistilled in the Netherlands\u003c\/strong\u003e, where genever, the ancestor of all gin, was born.

Strength matters in gin: alcohol carries botanical oils, and the extra proof keeps the citrus and juniper vivid instead of diluted, whether you drink it neat, over ice, or lengthened with tonic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it skips chill filtration, Aurantia may turn lightly hazy with ice or cold storage.
