description Lind & Lime Gin Overview
Lind & Lime Gin is a craft gin produced by the Port of Leith Distillery in Edinburgh, Scotland. The gin's name and botanical profile pay homage to James Lind, an 18th-century Scottish surgeon who discovered that citrus fruits could prevent scurvy. It is distilled using a base of neutral grain spirit infused with juniper, lime zest, and a hint of pink grapefruit. The resulting spirit provides a distinct citrus aroma balanced by traditional gin botanicals, making it suitable for mixed drinks and cocktails.
