At Black Horse Distillery, every bottle tells a story — and our Seven Deadly Gins collection is no exception. Each gin embodies one of the age-old vices, capturing its essence through carefully chosen botanicals, flavour, and aroma. Among them, Envy has always been a symbol of desire — the longing for what others possess. And now, that desire takes on a bold new form.
We’re thrilled to announce that Envy Gin has been reimagined with a crisp, refreshing Apple flavour.
Why Apple? The Fruit of Temptation
Few fruits carry as much symbolism as the apple. From ancient mythology to timeless art, it has always represented temptation, desire, and beauty — the perfect match for Envy. Its delicate sweetness, balanced with a subtle tartness, brings a fresh and vibrant energy to the gin, making it irresistible from the very first sip.
Our distillers have perfected this infusion to achieve a natural apple flavour that doesn’t overpower the botanicals, but rather enhances them — crisp green apple notes layered over a smooth juniper base, with just a hint of citrus to round it off.
A New Experience in Every Glass
Whether served neat over ice, mixed with tonic, or shaken into a bright cocktail, the new Apple Envy Gin delivers a refreshing and elegant experience. It’s a flavour that captures both sophistication and mischief — the kind of gin that turns heads and starts conversations.
This transformation marks not only a flavour change but a renewal of spirit in our Seven Deadly Gins range — a reminder that envy, when tasted, can be deliciously fragrant.
How to Enjoy It
- Classic Apple & Tonic
Pour 50ml of Apple Envy Gin over ice and top with premium Indian tonic water. Garnish with thin slices of green apple and a sprig of fresh mint. The mint lifts the aroma while the apple slices highlight the gin’s crisp notes.
- Apple Blossom Spritz
Mix 40ml Apple Envy Gin with 20ml elderflower liqueur and top with sparkling wine and a splash of soda. Serve in a large glass with ice and a twist of lemon zest for a floral, bubbly delight.
- Orchard Martini
Shake 50ml Apple Envy Gin, 15ml dry vermouth, and a dash of apple juice with ice. Strain into a chilled martini glass and garnish with a thin apple fan — a modern twist on a timeless classic.
