Nose
Lots of woody pine and juniper; reminiscent of an evergreen forest with sappy wood and even a hint of smoke.
Palate
Lots of juniper, accompanied by some minerality and citrus, especially lime. More earthiness follows with angelica and the sweetness of liquorice.
Finish
A crisp, clean finish with a gentle warmth. There’s a final sparkle of juniper with notes of wood and pine needles.
Comments
A good choice for big fans of juniper – fitting for a classic gin.
Score
8.2
Sam Coyne
Nose
A woodland treat. So earthy and green with lots of piney juniper coming through.
Palate
A light mouthfeel, initially piney juniper, but develops into citrus. Green notes of angelica soon follow.
Finish
A straight-forward earthy and green finish.
Comments
Just quietly straight forward stuff – if you enjoy your gin green and classic, this is one for you.
