Prince Charles is getting into the spirits business with his own gin, made with herbs grown from his garden at Highgrove House in Gloucestershire. The recipe for the botanical gin reportedly took months to develop, and Prince Charles personally taste-tested the quintessentially British spirit, which the distillery recommends using in a gin and tonic cocktail. “It is traditional, elegant, refined, but with complex herbal notes of a traditional English garden,” Mason told the Daily Mail. Proceeds for the royal spirit will go to Prince Charles’ Charitable Fund, which backs charities focused on education and social inclusion, among others. In September, Queen Elizabeth II debuted her own brand of Buckingham Palace gin with botanicals handpicked from her garden in London.
