A BRITISH CLASSIC Our founder, Jacob Schweppe was a jeweller and scientist with a real thirst for curiosity. In 1783 he invented the first ever process of capturing and bottling bubbles, and from this carbonation system, Schweppes Soda Water was born - the world’s first ever soft drink. Thanks to Jacob, Britain has been enjoying the superior taste of Schweppes mixers for over 200 years.

THE SCHWEPPES FOUNTAIN Schweppes is an iconic British brand, and has been the drink of choice for generations. It was the official drink of Prince Albert’s Great Exhibition in 1852, where over a million bottles were enjoyed. Schweppes supplied its drinks throughout the day, and installed a giant fountain in the atrium that pumped soda water from its fonts. Schweppes was the first drinks brand to partner with an event and the fountain has been commemorated on the bottle’s design ever since.

5


THE IMPORTANCE OF CARBONATION Carbonation is the most important aspect of any mixer. Did you know that over 80% of what we taste is driven by aroma? And it’s the carbonation ‘or effervescence’ that triggers your ‘olfactory system’ - or sense of smell. This is because the bubbles in your drink capture the flavour of the spirit and then release the aroma when they burst. Our obsession with bubbles ensures that they are always high in number, small and longer lasting, delivering an enhanced experience which lasts the whole drink through. With the signature effervescence of Schweppes you can really enjoy your favourite gin.

THE SKITTLE BOTTLE Jacob Schweppe understood the importance of carbonation and he dedicated his life to mastering the secret of perfect effervescence. He created a unique torpedo shaped bottle to retain his precious bubbles and to ensure the best tasting experience. It was originally closed with a natural cork and designed to lie on its side, so the cork remained wet and would expand securely into place. Inspired by our past, we decided to re-design our bottle to reflect Jacob Schweppe’s original design. To add a more refined edge and modern look, we collaborated with a French university to better understand how the champagne bottles preserve fizz. The result is our elegant new skittle bottle, designed to enhance Schweppes’ superior effervescence and ensure the perfect pouring experience.

THE NATION’S * FAVOURITE

Schweppes has been recommended by bartenders and remained the tonic choice of British households for over 234 years. As synonymous with style as sparkling good company, we’re proud to be the nation’s favourite*. After all, good taste never goes out of fashion.

*Schweppes is the #1 branded product for mixers. Based on Nielsen volume and value MAT 02/09/2017 & CGA volume and value 15/07/17

Deliciously dry, Pinkster is made with only 5 botanicals including, most importantly, raspberries! Juniper shines without being overpowering and raspberries contribute both soft, fruity flavour and tart dryness followed by light spice and pepper. Plus, motivated by the creators own wheat allergy, Pinkster is gluten-free. Altogether an excellent British gin! Garnish: Raspberries & Mint Pairs best with: 1783 Crisp Tonic Water Cambridge | 43%

PUERTO DE INDIAS STRAWBERRY GIN

Soft and delicate with intense aromas of strawberry and juniper on the nose, joined by delicate touches of liquorice and gentle citrus notes.

Garnish: Strawberries & Raspberries Pairs best with: 1783 Crisp Tonic Water Portugal | 37.5%

TWO BIRDS DRY

Two Birds take natural spring water and use a small but perfectly coordinated spectrum of ingredients to make a wonderfully aromatic gin, with sage, coriander and lavender as a vanguard. A classic London gin, fresh yet delicate on the palate, full of big pine and winter berries adding an intriguing piquancy. Garnish: Lemon Pairs best with: 1783 Crisp Tonic Water Leicester, England | 40%

ZYMUGORIUM TURKISH DELIGHT

Zymurgorium Turkish Delight is a light and floral gin liqueur with an unbeatable aroma. Made with the finest rose petals which, once picked, are immediately infused in gin made from British juniper and over 20 other botanicals to ensure that none of the world class aroma and flavour are lost! Garnish: None Pairs best with: 1783 Crisp Tonic Water Manchester, England | 18.8%
