Royal Forth Gin - a triumph of Pickering's botanical engineering !

Published 10:17 on 29 Nov 2021

After our AGM today, Will (Rear Commodore, House) and new member Marcus Pickering, finally revealed our brand new, exclusive, Royal Forth Gin!

This is an absolute triumph, and all credit to Marcus and his team of botanical engineers at Summerhall for creating a unique and delicious authentic new London Dry Gin. Pickering's have created over 30 different varieties of Gin to date. The Royal Forth Gin stands apart as it celebrates our very special coastal landscape, rich in Kelp, which is harvested on the Fife coast!

The Royal Forth recipe contains 11 botanicals, including three local seaweeds: Dulse, Oarweed and Sugar Kelp. Other beautiful ingredients include: Juniper, Coriander, Angelica, Cinnamon, Orris root, Liquorice root, Bitter orange peel and Cubeb berries.

All sale proceeds will go towards refurbishing our patio and BBQ area so that we can enjoy all the more, a G&T in the summertime, on this stunning jewel of a shore!

We are very lucky to have such a wonderful membership and thank Marcus again for this special artisanal gift exclusively to our members.

Thank you to everyone that participated in the 2021 RFYC AGM.

If you wish to purchase a bottle (or two) for yourself, or for a gift for someone else, it can be purchased through our website via Purchase Gin . Once the order is placed and paid for, your gin can be collected from the office or the bar.
