Greater Than’s Juniper Bomb Gin makes a long awaited come-back!


The makers of Greater Than Gin have announced the return of Juniper Bomb, the gin which was first
launched in 2020 as India’s first ever limited-edition Gin. Juniper Bomb hit shelves in a new “black-
out” avatar on December 10 in Goa and Mumbai.


A Flavor Born from an Unexpected Twist
Juniper Bomb’s origins are as unique as its taste. This limited-edition gin was created by accident
during a blackout at their distillery in Goa. In 2017, when Greater Than had just been launched, the
distillery was hit by a power outage. Not ones to give up, the distillers continued the distillation 24
hours later by which time the Juniper and the other botanicals had steeped into the spirit three
times longer than needed. The outcome? A radically bold and explosive version of Greater Than
Gin—a happy accident that has since become a fan (and distillery) favourite! 
The Co-Founder and Master Distiller, Anand Virmani said “In this day and age with innumerable
options on the Gin shelf, the Juniper Bomb stands well apart with its clean, yet explosive Juniper
flavour. We think of it as a Gin with the volume turned up to the max! It may not be a Gin for
beginners, but it’s certainly one for the proper Gin enthusiast.”
Due to its intense flavor profile, it’s best enjoyed “naked,” meaning without any garnish, to allow its
powerful, unapologetic juniper notes to take centre stage. This gin explodes in your mouth—not in
your cup—delivering an unforgettable taste that will leave a massive impression, the makers state.


Tasting Notes:
Electric! Like biting straight into a plump Juniper Berry. Bold and complex at first with a finish of ripe
lychees.


Juniper Bomb is available in Maharashtra (Mumbai/Pune) and Goa and will soon be launched in
Karnataka and beyond. The pricing is Rs. 1,450 in Goa; Rs. 2,400 in Maharashtra and Rs. 2,390 in
Karnataka. Currently, Greater Than is available in 11 states and three union territories in India, as
well as in 16 other countries globally.
