The Collector Vermouth

The Collector vermouth is made with 20 different botanicals grown in the restaurant’s walled garden, including bay, rosemary, sage, wormwood and yarrow. Foraged ingredients such as rowan berries and scots pine are gathered from the Mendip Hills and countryside close to the restaurant.

These are used to make botanical tinctures using spirit distilled from organic cider apples grown in Hereford. These tinctures are then blended with a handmade caramel made from English sugar and a white wine made from 100% Malvasia grapes, grown and fermented by the Sartori family in Italy’s Veneto region. This small batch production takes place in a converted Victorian glasshouse overlooking the walled garden and the hills beyond.

The vermouth is hand-bottled and numbered and presented in a crystal Vinolok bottle. View less
