Small Batch • All-Natural Color • Copper Pot Distilled
Elegant. Vibrant. Unforgettable.
Empress 1908 Indigo Gin is a visually stunning, handcrafted spirit distilled in small batches by Victoria Distillers. Infused with butterfly pea blossom, this gin’s deep indigo hue transforms to soft pink or lavender when mixed with citrus or tonic—creating a magical color-shifting experience without artificial dyes.
Inspired by the legendary Fairmont Empress Hotel and its signature tea blend, this gin is as refined as it is expressive.
