THE Glasgow Distillery Company has launched a new range of vodka, placing botanicals at the heart of the spirit.
The vodka is handcrafted at the distillery using a range of carefully considered botanicals in order to create a complex and sophisticated spirit, boasting 100% natural ingredients with no artificial flavours, sweeteners or colourants.
The first two expressions in the range are G52 Fresh Citrus and G52 Rich Coffee.

Mike Hayward, brand director and co-founder, said: “This is a handcrafted vodka that uses fresh botanicals sourced from around the world to give real depth of flavour. Authenticity and transparency are extremely important to us at Glasgow Distillery and that’s why we never use anything artificial in the making of G52 Botanical Vodka, or indeed in any of our spirits.
“The rise in popularity and availability of gin over the last few years has created a large consumer base who are constantly seeking to explore and discover new drinking experiences. We are all much more educated on botanicals and distillation methods, with provenance and authenticity becoming key indicators of quality over the last few years in particular.
“We wanted to create an experimental range of vodka that explores various botanicals and offers the consumers exciting new flavours, proving that vodka doesn’t have to be one dimensional in flavour. We’re especially excited to see how consumers mix and pair our cocktails as they naturally make perfect bases for a wide variety of cocktails.”
G52 Botanical Vodka is now available for purchase from the Glasgow Distillery website for £25 (70cl, 40% ABV).
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
