Bombay Sapphire has released a new lemon-flavoured gin – Bombay Citron Pressé – inspired by the Tom Collins cocktail, The Spirits Business reports.
According to the brand, Bombay Citron Pressé contains hand-picked Mediterranean lemons, which have been harvested early in the season to capture their zesty, citrus notes before being hand-peeled to create 100% ‘natural’ fruit infusion.
The launch of Bombay Citron Pressé follows on from the brand’s previous berry-forward launch - Bombay Bramble, based on Bramble cocktail.
Natasha Curtin, global vice-president for Bombay Sapphire, said: “Each of the products within our flavoured gin portfolio are inspired by iconic cocktails.
“After the successful launch of Bombay Bramble, we began to seek inspiration for our next flavour expression to continue to build out our portfolio and elevate the flavoured gin category.”
Citron Pressé combines the brand’s London Dry Gin with the taste of Mediterranean lemons. The 37.5% ABV gin is made with no added sugar.
The gin brand recently added another lemon-flavoured variant to its portfolio: Bombay Sapphire Premier Cru Murcian Lemon.
