Alba is the Scottish Gaelic name for the country of Scotland and was the former Kingdom of the Picts in the 1st Century AD. This exceptionally fine Premium Gin was created by legendary Gin maker Tom Nichol, using a variety of botanicals including Myrtle and Heather to capture the essence of Scotland. He carefully blended these botanicals with the finest "middle cut" of the spirit as it comes off the Gin still, known as "the hearts", to create the Heart of Alba.
