Bombay Sapphire Basquiat Special Edition

Jean-Michel Basquiat is a cultural icon and prolific artist who became a defining force in the New York City art scene in the 1980s. He has created a global legacy through his iconic style and the social commentary behind his work which has greatly influenced modern and contemporary art. Exhibited in Basquiat’s second ever show and inspired by his time in Los Angeles, Untitled (L.A. Painting) is a masterpiece which features many of the key motifs that we’ve come to associate with his work: the crown, the bird, the coin, the skull, all beautifully collaged over soft hues of blue.

A patron of the arts, Bombay Sapphire has long supported the work of artists, ever since the brand’s inception. With a collective mission to inspire and enable creative self-expression in us all, Bombay and the Basquiat Estate bring to life this Special-Edition bottle which shines a light on his fearless creativity and meaningful artist expression and transcends generations.

BOMBAY SAPPHIRE® Gin revolutionized the gin category in the 1980s with its vapour-infusion process and the inclusion of ten botanicals in the liquid. The name itself drew upon Indian heritage and the famous ‘Star of Bombay,’ a 182-carat sapphire – arguably the finest ever found.

Delicately balanced and incredibly versatile, BOMBAY SAPPHIRE Gin boasts ten certified sustainably sourced botanicals from around the world. Each sip features notes of juniper, citrus coriander, peppers and spices. BOMBAY SAPPHIRE Gin goes well in a martini cocktail or Tom Collins.
