Cygnet 77 is a rare and luxurious Welsh cask-aged sipping gin, crafted from the award-winning Cygnet 22 recipe and elevated through an exceptional maturation process. Rested for 55 weeks in ex-Welsh whisky barrels with rich Manuka honey, this gin evolves into a complex and elegant spirit that bridges the character of fine whisky with the botanical beauty of premium gin. Infused with 22 botanicals—ranging from chamomile and heather to citrus peel and bee pollen—Cygnet 77 delivers depth, warmth, and velvety sweetness while remaining rooted in traditional juniper-forward purity. Opulent, refined, and contemplative, this is a gin crafted not only to sip, but to savour.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a Welsh gin that spends 55 weeks resting in ex-Welsh whisky barrels with Manuka honey, and it comes out golden-straw and built for sipping. It starts from the Cygnet 22 recipe, with 22 botanicals that include chamomile, heather, citrus peel and bee pollen, yet it keeps a clear juniper core. Expect meadow blossoms and chamomile tea on the nose, then a silky palate of creamy almond, warm spice and caramelised honey, with the barrel adding vanilla, toasted grain and gentle wood warmth. The finish is long and plush, trailing honey and a touch of pepper. At 44% ABV it has enough presence for a stirred Golden Martini or a gin-style Old Fashioned, but we think it shines neat or over ice. It suits whisky drinkers curious about gin, gin enthusiasts looking past the usual citrus-forward bottles, and collectors of cask-aged gins. We carry it because it genuinely sits between two categories and does justice to both.
Pairs well with
- Honey-glazed goat cheese and figs — The tangy cheese and sweet figs echo the gin's caramelised Manuka honey and chamomile softness.
- Smoked salmon with citrus, dill — Smoky, rich salmon is lifted by the gin's citrus zest and juniper, while the herbs match its soft herbal finish.
- Slow after-dinner nightcap — Its long, plush finish of honey, oak and gentle pepper rewards unhurried sipping at the end of an evening.

What does it taste like?
What does it taste like?
The nose brings meadow blossoms, chamomile tea, citrus zest and juniper with light oak. The palate is silky, with a juniper core, warm spices, creamy almond and caramelised Manuka honey, plus vanilla from the barrel. The finish is long and smooth, with lingering honey, florals and delicate pepper.
Is it better neat or in cocktails?
Is it better neat or in cocktails?
Neat is the purest way to let the honey, oak and botanicals unfold, and on the rocks it brings out a creamy texture and citrus-floral notes. It also works in a Golden Martini, a gin-style Honeyed Old Fashioned with orange bitters, or a Chamomile Highball with chilled chamomile tea and soda.
