5 Innovative Scottish Gin Flavours You Need to Try in 2023

Creating bold and unique gin flavours is what we do best here at Kinrara. From our location in the beautiful Cairngorms, our Scottish Gin Distillery has been producing award-winning craft gins since 2017.

Through daring experimentation we have managed to push the boundaries of gin production and challenge the norms of what gin is in the UK. We are constantly looking for new ways to innovate in both our own distillery process and the types of gin liquor we produce. Our team are all gin-obsessed in the best way possible, and creating unique gin flavours that stand out from the crowd is our constant pursuit.

Below you’ll find some of our most radical flavoured gin that you absolutely have to try in 2023. 

Let’s take a look at the list of our top Scottish flavoured gins in more detail.

  1. Oaked Spice Gin

Wait, oaked spice gin? Can’t only rums and whiskeys be spiced?

Well, not anymore!

The Kinrara Oaked Spice Gin is the perfect gin for cold days and nights. It has been lovingly created using a combination of Tonka beans, cinnamon, all spice, nutmeg and vanilla, as well as some chipped American Oak to add that oaky taste and aroma that comes through in a subtle yet pleasant way.

Gin lovers will notice a warm cinnamon taste to this gin, along with hints of fizzy cola bottles and mulled wine to compliment the toasted oak taste. The gin has a long and complex finish which is perfectly balanced between warm spice and citrus fruit.

We recommend trying this flavoured gin with ginger ale, served neat with ice or even in a hot chocolate! We did warn you that we liked to push boundaries….

  1. Hibiscus Gin

This sweet flavoured hibiscus gin offers a dry but fruity finish that is sure to capture both your imagination and your taste buds.

It boasts delicate floral notes and a fragrant citrus taste. Its sweet finish and fresh aroma makes it ideal for a hot summers day. We suggest sampling our Kinrara Hibiscus Gin with ice, lemonade and fresh Summer raspberries for a beautifully elegant gin experience.

In addition to the sweetness, this fruity gin has a strong taste of cranberries and blood orange along with subtle flavours of hibiscus tea and pomegranates. For those who like to really savour their gins you’ll also find hints of rosewater in amongst the pronounced fruit character that forms the basis of delightfully fresh summer gin.
