Lord Trenchard Gin is a limited edition gin produced to commemorate the centenary of the Royal Air Force and is named in honour of Hugh Trenchard - the founder of the modern RAF. Launched by Heroes Drinks Company (creators of Heroes Vodka) the 50% ABV gin features 11 botanicals which are individually distilled before being blended. Only 1918 bottles exist worldwide (signifying the year the RAF was formed) and no further batches will be produced. Created in partnership with the RAF Benevolent Fund, profits go towards helping Britain's military community.

The Gin Guide Review

Lord Trenchard Gin is a well balanced and rounded gin, with juniper and bold, fresh citrus combining with herbaceous basil and thyme, subtly sweet vanilla and liquorice, aromatic cardamom, and rooty spice. The presentation is opulent and overall it is a product that certainly rises to the occasion and is a fitting celebration of a momentous part of British history. - Paul Jackson, 2018
