A refreshing and invigorating serve, for the free-spirited.
From wandering along sunkissed beaches to diving into the ocean, there’s an element out there that helps each one of us capture our essence. By combining nature, adventure and purpose embrace your true selves and when the sun sets on your wildest journeys, there’s a Mermaid moment waiting.
Mermaid’s signature gin’s name was inspired by its lead botanical rock samphire, known locally as ‘mermaid’s kiss’. This aromatic succulent clings to the cliffs surrounding the Island and marks the high tide line on its majestic beaches. Like the kiss of the mythical mermaid, saving sailors lost at sea, the rock samphire was a signal that shipwrecked sailors and smugglers were safe from the raging seas.
A smooth, refreshing and complex contemporary style, with fresh citrus, sweet spice and gentle juniper on the nose. The taste has citrus zing, combined with peppery spice and an earthy sweetness which is complemented by a hint of sea air. A long, layered and complex finish rounds off the experience with a well-rounded mouthfeel.

Mermaid’s iconic bottle is made of 100% natural materials, is plastic-free, strong enough to be reused and a thing of beauty to be cherished…
In the Solent – the stretch of water between the Isle of Wight and mainland Britain – seagrass meadows spread across the ocean floor. These incredible plants sequester carbon at an astounding rate and shelter a wealth of wildlife, creating ecosystems beneath the waters. It’s estimated that 92% of these meadows have been lost over the last 100 years, damaged by pollution, human activity, reduced water quality, disease, and the effects of climate change. So Mermaid are working with the Hampshire & Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust to monitor and restore these meadows in the waters surrounding their island home.
