A historic city distillery has crafted a new Limoncello-inspired liqueur.

Bullards Spirits' new creation, Limongino, combines freshly zested lemons and Bullards' London Dry Gin to form a fresh take on the classic drink.

Each handcrafted bottle contains the essence of two and a half lemons balanced with notes of bay and macadamia.

Oliver Chapman, Bullards' brand experience manager, said Limongino was inspired by a desire to make something "traditional but unique".

"It just made sense for us to put an English twist on an Italian classic," he said.

"It’s a perfect marriage of our London Dry Gin’s distinct botanical profile with the fresh, vibrant whole lemons.

"The result is a liqueur that’s zesty, juicy, and utterly delightful—ideal for sipping or mixing into cocktails.”

Limongino will be available to buy online and from Jarrolds Department Store from August 24.

Bullards was originally established in Norwich in 1837 and was initially known for its ales but rebranded as a spirit-maker in 2015.
