World Gin Botanical Library
Browse the full library of gin botanicals — every plant, root, peel and seed we use in the school. Search by name, filter by region or flavour family, or just dig in.
New botanicals appear here automatically whenever a community gin is added using one we don’t already list — so the library grows as more gins are built. Spotted a gap? Add your gin and any new botanicals come along with it.
