Brockmans Orange Kiss, English gin with Valencian orange
Brockmans Orange Kiss is an edition that expands the universe of this highly recognisable English gin, preserving its smooth character while placing clear emphasis on citrus notes. In this expression, orange takes centre stage, bringing freshness, natural sweetness and a very approachable profile.
At Licorea, we see this gin as an option designed for those who enjoy rounded, aromatic flavours with a well-integrated fruity touch. It is neither aggressive nor dry. Its aim is to offer balance, aroma and easy enjoyment.
The Brockmans style and its evolution
Brockmans has established itself as a modern-style gin, known for its smoothness and the use of less conventional botanicals. Brockmans Orange Kiss builds on that same foundation, adding an extra layer of citrus character that reinforces its Mediterranean feel.
The inclusion of Valencian oranges provides a fresh, natural aroma with a balanced sweetness that does not mask the other botanicals. The result is an aromatic, elegant gin that is very easy to mix.
Botanicals and production
The base of Brockmans Orange Kiss is a gin distilled from high-quality grain spirit. To this base, classic botanicals such as juniper are added, alongside other less common ingredients that form part of the brand’s DNA.
Valencian orange peel is carefully integrated during the distillation process, delivering clean and expressive citrus notes. This botanical selection is focused on balance, avoiding excess and maintaining a smooth texture on the palate.
The result is a well-structured gin, where the citrus character is clearly defined, always supported by a subtle spicy and floral background.
How to enjoy Brockmans Orange Kiss
This gin is designed to be enjoyed in simple serves, where its citrus profile can shine without interference.
It works particularly well in a gin and tonic served over plenty of ice, paired with a neutral or lightly citrus tonic. A slice of orange or a twist of peel enhances its character without overwhelming the drink.
It is also an interesting base for fresh cocktails with a fruity or floral profile, where balance and smoothness are key.
An accessible and highly versatile gin
Within the category of citrus-flavoured gins, Brockmans Orange Kiss stands out for its balance and ease of use. It does not aim to be intense or dry, but rather smooth and aromatic.
At Licorea, we recommend it both to those new to gin and to enthusiasts looking for something different, with a clearly defined citrus profile and great versatility.
A gin made to be enjoyed without complications, with a modern style and a pronounced orange character that adds freshness and personality.
