Nose
A perfumed garden of citrus blossom and leaves. Vibrant aromas burst forth from the glass; exciting and attractive.
Palate
Exotic lemongrass and ginger to start, followed by a fruit salad of citrus, orange and lime. The lemon becomes more focused towards the end, bringing in coriander, melon and a hint of sherbet.
Finish
A long, distinguished finish with citrus and peppery coriander.
Comments
A simply delightful gin with great versatility and a vivacious character.

Nose
A sweet tropical island paradise, with fragrant orange bursting out.
Palate
There’s a light peppery sweetness that is tickling the back of my throat as soon as it hits, joining from the juniper, then we’re back with orange, fiery lemon and lime.
Finish
This really isn’t going anywhere and neither is the heat.
Comments
This really is a dream; it’s sweet, spicy and a little bit of a sass-pot of a gin. You can be as playful with this as you want, but I’ll be in the corner enjoying it over a big ice cube.
