The world’s number one premium gin by value for a second consecutive year has achieved a “consistently strong rate of growth” in value over the last five years and this has continued to improve in 2009 with a compound annual growth rate of 12.0 per cent.

Even in the current economic climate, when many other spirit brands are promoting on price, consumers continue to pay a premium price for Bombay Sapphire, claims John Burke, Global Gin Category Director for Bombay Sapphire owners Bacardi, who pointed out that gin value continues to grow within the Premium White Spirits category.
