The Botanist is a dry gin made by the Bruichladdich Distillery in Islay, Scotland. It is one of two gins made on the island and is known for its hand-foraged botanicals.[1] The name of the gin was inspired by two local botanists who helped develop the recipe for the gin alongside former Master Distiller, Jim McEwan.[2] In 2024 it was ranked the seventh-bestselling brand of gin in the world by Drinks International.[3]
