Aatta Gin 70cl

Award-winning Aatta Gin is hand-crafted and has earned top honours, including Best Bottle and Best Design at the World Drinks Awards 2022. This exceptional London Dry Gin, acclaimed for its quality, also received the highest score among all UK gins at the London Spirits Competition 2022.

Inspired by the Orkney Islands, Aatta Gin undergoes an impressive eight-time distillation process with eight carefully selected botanicals, resulting in a remarkably smooth spirit and inspiring the name - Aatta means eight in Old Norse. Each batch is distilled for over 24 hours, infusing fresh, zesty oranges, hand-picked rose hips, vibrant juniper, and a touch of vanilla for a luxuriously smooth finish.

Tasting Notes

Aatta is a complex and bright London Dry Gin. Whole Croatian juniper adds a piney and green freshness, fresh Sicilian oranges form a bright zest and dancing zing, hand-picked rose hips create a lively and slightly floral touch with the seeds inside giving another dimension, more earthy and rich. A few sticks of cinnamon add another earthy yet slightly sweet component and whole Madagascan vanilla gives the spirit a long and velvety finish.

The Award-Winning Bottle

With Aatta, the Orkney Gin Company brought their well-known ‘selkie wife’ (which can be seen in the logo on all their previous spirits) to life by hand-painting elements of the iridescent inner label. Tales of these mysterious sirens, which were said to lure unsuspecting sailors into the sea, can be found in many folklore books, and stories of these creatures are kept alive by those who continue to talk about them.

The bespoke gorgeous prism-shaped bottle and quality glass stopper reflect light and create an effect on the siren inside as she appears to move and swim. The bottle has the company name, 'Orkney Spirits Limited', debossed in the glass itself, with a gorgeous deep base made into the shape of the seabed oozing class and mystery. This bottle looks amazing on any shelf and truly represents the quality spirit inside; it's no wonder it took home the gold at the World Drinks Awards 2022!

Perfect Serve

Aatta is such a bright and fresh London Dry Gin, so it's best to keep its accompaniments simple. Pair this hand-made gin with Indian tonic water, or Mediterranean tonic water and a little orange. In the winter, the addition of a cinnamon stick gives it a lovely festive twist.

Although it's ideal in its purest form, Aatta is also very versatile - try it with your favourite G&T mixers, soda, lemonade, ginger ale or as a base for a variety of cocktails.
