The heritage of OPIHR Spices of the Orient Gin is firmly rooted in the ancient Spice Route. Traditionally merchants would travel thousands of miles along the route, trading exotic spices and botanicals from distant lands.
OPIHR Spices of the Orient Gin is crafted with a selection of exotic hand-picked botanicals, carefully chosen by OPIHR’s Master Distiller, including spicy Cubeb berries from Indonesia, Black Pepper from India and Coriander from Morocco.
The botanicals in Opihr Gin make the journey to their final destination, the oldest distillery in England, where quality gin has been traditionally distilled, using the same London Dry Gin method, since 1761. Here the botanicals are married with fine English spirit to produce an exotic oriental spiced gin.
ABV: 40%
This intense, exotic spiced gin exudes the character of the Orient, incorporating hand-picked botanicals from along the Ancient Spice Route.
Aroma: A rich and robust gin with a smooth perfume and sharp bursts of citrus. Key notes of cumin and cardamom provide a warm, earthy background balanced with grapefruit peel.
Taste: Soft camphor, some sweetness and Oriental spices create a warm mouth feel that lingers but does not increase intensity.

OurBotanicals
German Angelica Root
An essential part of the holy trinity of gin. Angelica root gives OPIHR Gin finely balanced bitter and earthy notes. The Spice Route leads along many unexpected places.
Indian Cardamom
When you open a bottle of Opihr Gin, the first note that will hit your nose is sweet and fragrant cardamom; a real stand-out botanical in our gin.
Indian Ginger
The warming heat from the ginger botanical adds elevated spice notes with hints of sweetness. OPIHR is therefore perfectly paired with ginger ale for our signature G&G serve.
Indian Tellicherry Black Pepper
Provides peppery finish on the tongue. Tellicherry comes from grafted Malabar plants grown on Mount Tellicherry on the Malabar Coast in in the state of Kerala.
Italian Juniper
OPIHR would not be a gin without this core ingredient. Hand-picked in Italy, it provides the basis for our herbal and refreshing spiced gin.
Malaysian Cubeb Berries
The flavoursome Cubeb came to Europe via India through trade in Arabia. It provides an aromatic pepperiness and camphor notes that sing in harmony with the juniper.
Moroccan Coriander
Along with juniper and angelica, coriander builds the holy trinity of gin and contributes to OPIHR’s distinct flavour profile and explosion of flavours.
Spanish Orange Peel
Sweet and bitter orange peel ripened by the Spanish sun creates a flavour balance that works perfectly with all our other hand-selected herbs and spices.
Turkish Cumin
Nothing reminds us more of the Orient than the flavour of cumin. The Ancient Spice Route leads through Turkey which is a trading port connection East and West. It does not get much more OPIHR than that.
Turkish Grapefruit Peel
Sharp bursts of citrus from the grapefruit peel make our OPIHR Gin so well-balanced, complementing the herbal notes for a fresh, clean finish.
