The Gordon’s Sicilian Lemon Distilled Gin is a new product announced by Diageo to offer consumers a distinctly Mediterranean-inspired spirit to enjoy in their favorite cocktail.
The spirit features a 37.5% ABV and is a refreshing take on the brand's classic London dry gin, and comes hot on the heels of the Gordon's Premium Pink Distilled Gin that launched in 2017. The gin is available from wholesalers now, while UK grocery availability will start in early March 2020.
Head of Gordon's Europe Jessica Lace spoke on the new spirit saying, "As consumers become more adventurous with their drinks choices and want to explore new flavors, there is an ever-increasing appetite for different styles of gin. We have spent a long time crafting Gordon’s Sicilian Lemon Distilled Gin to ensure we deliver the perfect balance of flavors. The result is an outstandingly zesty gin which delivers a zesty twist for consumers seeking new ways to enjoy their favorite G&T."
