Process & Production

Hendrick's Oasium Gin is created through the botanical experimentation that defines the Hendrick's Cabinet of Curiosities collection.

The brand's gin-making heritage combines traditional distillation techniques with unconventional botanical ideas, allowing each expression to explore a different aromatic direction.

The original Hendrick's Gin is produced using two distinctive stills: a Bennett pot still and a Carter-Head still.

The Bennett still produces a rich, full-bodied botanical distillate, while the Carter-Head still creates a lighter and more delicate spirit through vapor infusion.

This dual-distillation approach is central to the original Hendrick's production philosophy.

For Oasium, Master Distiller Lesley Gracie drew inspiration from the botanical freshness associated with a desert oasis.

The expression emphasizes bright citrus and fresh green herbal characteristics, creating a refreshing interpretation of contemporary gin.

Its botanical profile is designed to evoke the contrast between dry desert surroundings and the vibrant plant life found around an oasis.

The result is a gin with an aromatic character that distinguishes it from the original Hendrick's expression.

Bottled at 43.5% ABV (87 proof), Oasium maintains a substantial botanical presence while remaining versatile for traditional and contemporary gin cocktails.
