Hendrick's Flora Adora Gin

Product Description

Hendrick's Flora Adora: A Trip Through the Garden

Flora Adora is the fourth release from Hendrick's Cabinet of Curiosities, Master Distiller Lesley Gracie's ongoing series of limited-edition experiments built on the foundation of the original Hendrick's recipe. This particular release was inspired by an afternoon watching pollinators at work in her own garden on the Ayrshire coast of Scotland. "I find it really relaxing to watch the butterflies and bees busy at work in the garden," Gracie explained. "It's fascinating to me how they seem to settle on some plants more than others. Certain flowers are more enticing to the pollinators, and it's these blooms that I've used to create a botanical blend for Hendrick's Flora Adora."

Built on Hendrick's familiar juniper and coriander backbone, Flora Adora layers in an intensified selection of floral botanicals, including chamomile, elderflower, hibiscus, lavender, and yarrow, alongside the brand's signature rose and cucumber infusion. The result is, by a wide margin, the most floral gin Hendrick's has ever produced, and it's a genuinely divisive one. Some gin enthusiasts consider it a standout, next-level floral expression unlike anything else on the market, while others find the perfumed intensity overwhelming. If you already love a heavily floral gin and tonic, or you're a devoted Hendrick's collector chasing every Cabinet of Curiosities release, this is very likely for you. If you prefer your gin more restrained, it may be worth trying a pour before committing to a full bottle.

Bottled at 43.4% ABV and packaged in Hendrick's signature apothecary-style bottle with a distinctive carnation pink label, Flora Adora is a limited release, available only while supplies last as part of the brand's rotating Cabinet of Curiosities lineup.

Tasting Notes

Nose: An intense wave of floral perfume, with lavender, rose, elderflower, and violet, backed by chamomile tea and orange oil; juniper is present but notably subdued.

Palate: Floral notes take center stage, with chamomile and elderflower cordial mingling with Hendrick's signature cucumber, citrus, and light spice; juniper and coriander provide a gentle backbone underneath.

Finish: Long and floral, with lingering rose, lavender, and a touch of peppery spice.

Food Pairings

Flora Adora's intensely floral profile pairs well with light, fresh fare that won't compete with its perfumed character. Try it alongside cucumber sandwiches, smoked salmon canapés, or fruit-based desserts like raspberry tart.

Serving Suggestions

Flora Adora is best enjoyed in a Gin & Tonic with a slice of cucumber, or in the brand's own signature serve, the Wildgarden Cup: combine Flora Adora with lemon juice, simple syrup, and soda water over ice, then garnish with raspberries, mint leaves, and cucumber wheels.
