Nose
Biscuity notes of digestives and lemon shortbread are joined by lovely warm citrus.
Palate
A delicate, sweet earthiness to start, leading onto a light, creamy palate of vanilla oak and cedar, before a gradually building resinous character.
Finish
Juniper and angelica on the finish with a gentle, warming glow.
Comments
A beautifully smooth gin that would work well when mixed with cream and crème de cacao in an Alexander cocktail.
Score
8.0

Nose
Baked cinnamon biscuits, fresh out of the oven, cut through by a hint of lemon zest.
Palate
There’s a nuttiness that has replaced the initial festive spice. Again, the citrus note is keeping things from getting too cloying in there and sweetens the whole palate up.
Finish
A relatively delicate finish, with some fresh florality to it.
Comments
I would say this is a very delicately balanced gin that is likely to be a bartender’s dream.
