Rose Petals. The ultimate in romantic, glamorous and frankly over the top garnishment. This bag contains 10 grams of organically grown Rose Petals from Pakistan. Does not sound a lot, but trust us, there is more than enough here to provide garnishes for a small wedding, plus have enough left to throw over the happy couple - well maybe we exaggerated that last bit, but there is about a double handful in this bag.

We suggest buying this item as an 'add on' to other items to make the most of the postage charge.

It is absolutely essential to keep the petals in a dry atmosphere and at a slightly cooler than room temperature, out of bright light and with the top of the bags turned over a few times.
Rose petals need to be treated with care if used in gin production as they are fragile and the delicate floral notes may not be extracted if overheated. In fact, it is commonly claimed that it is impossible to pot distill the flowers. However, Herno Swedish Rose is made using distilled rose petals, which add a floral sweetness to the gin. A distillate of rose, along with a distillate of cucumber, is added to Hendrick's Gin, after the blending of its two intial pot and Carterhead distillates. Another gin made using rose is Nolet's Silver Dry Gin. Rose is also used to make rosewater, a cocktail ingredient, and Creme de Rose, a once-forgotten liqueur that has since been revived.
