Empress 1908 Indigo Flavored Gin 375ml

Empress 1908 in this 375ml format offers the perfect introduction to one of the world's most visually distinctive gins. This half-bottle size makes the color-changing gin experience accessible for those curious about the butterfly pea blossom magic, while providing just enough for special occasions or gifting without committing to a full bottle.

The story behind Empress remains compelling regardless of bottle size. Inspired by the Fairmont Empress Hotel in Victoria, British Columbia, this gin incorporates butterfly pea blossom among its botanicals, creating that stunning natural indigo color. When citrus or tonic is added, the pH change transforms the deep blue to soft pink or purple - a bit of cocktail chemistry that never fails to impress. Beyond the visual appeal lies a genuinely well-crafted gin with complexity and character.

The 375ml size is ideal for exploring Empress's unique flavor profile. The butterfly pea blossom adds subtle earthy notes that complement traditional botanicals. Rose petals and lavender create floral elegance, while the Empress tea blend adds a distinctive touch connecting the gin to its hotel heritage. Juniper provides classic structure, supported by citrus and spice. The result is a gin that would be noteworthy even without its color-changing properties.

This smaller format serves multiple purposes perfectly. For gifting, it offers premium presentation without overwhelming recipients. For home bartenders, it allows experimentation with this unique gin without major investment. For special occasions, it provides just enough magical color-changing cocktails to make the evening memorable. Whether used for Instagram-worthy drinks or simply appreciating quality gin with a twist, this 375ml bottle delivers the full Empress experience in a perfectly sized package.
