Nose
Soft, yet nuanced nose, with notes of lemon peel and tangerine segments. Fruity and floral with a spot of star anise and almond.
Palate
A beautiful texture. The spirit fills the mouth with lots of citrus; both zesty peel and aromatic blossom.
Finish
Sweet and earthy liquorice with a twist of violets, along with more citrus and coriander, making for a long and oily finish.
Comments
Overall, a bright, summery gin; perfect for long, refreshing drinks such as a Collins or even a Bramble.
Score
8.1
Felicity Murray
Nose
Alluring and well rounded with juniper, coriander, angelica root, oranges, rosemary and chamomile.
Palate
Hugely flavoursome and intense with sweet citrus, vegetal, floral and green herbal notes in perfect harmony.
Finish
Fruity and slightly peppery, long and complex.
Comments
Try mixing this gin with a light or herbal tonic and garnish with a slice of cucumber or even a stick of celery. It’s also the perfect gin for using in the classic Italian cocktail, the Negroni.
