Lind & Lime Bergamotto Di Calabria Gin
Scottish gin brand Lind & Lime is turning heads with its first global travel retail exclusive, Bergamotto Di Calabria. This zesty new expression takes the brand’s signature citrus profile up a notch with vibrant bergamot peel. It’s the first in the new Grand Voyage series—an exciting citrus-focused lineup tailored specifically for travelers craving something fresh, premium, and globally inspired.
Lind & Lime Bergamotto Di Calabria Gin
Lind & Lime Gin, crafted in Edinburgh since 2018, has officially launched Bergamotto Di Calabria—its first travel retail-exclusive bottling. This bold new expression is the debut release in the brand’s Grand Voyage series, which will explore unique citrus botanicals sourced from around the world.
Distilled with sun-drenched bergamot peel from Calabria, Italy, this release still retains Lind & Lime’s original botanical base: juniper, pink peppercorn, and lime peel. The result? A brighter, more floral twist on the original, aimed at citrus lovers looking for something more expressive.
Bergamotto Di Calabria is now available exclusively at major UK airports including Edinburgh, Glasgow, London Gatwick, Stansted, Aberdeen, and Prestwick. A wider rollout to more travel retail outlets is planned in the coming months.
Lind & Lime continues to blend tradition and innovation with Bergamotto Di Calabria, balancing their signature style with an adventurous citrus punch.
