Portobello Road Gin was created in 2011, after 9 months of hard graft, research & experimentation at 171 Portobello Road, above the Portobello Star. A capital bracer, made with juniper berries, coriander seed, angelica root, orris root, lemon peel, orange peel, liquorice root, cassia bark and nutmeg, served with a twist of pink grapefruit. The gin is currently going from strength to strength, winning gold at the International Spirit Challenge in 2013 and Gold at the San Fransisco World Spirits Competition in 2014. March 2015 brings the launch of PRG in New York City, next.. the world!

The Ginstitute, London's second smallest museum, aims to provide patrons with an unique and unrivalled opportunity to understand the true spirit of London. More information and tickets available here: http://portobelloroadgin.com/ginstitute
