Nose
Aromatic citrus with complex, spicy coriander followed by warm, mellow tea.

Palate
Excellent texture – balanced and smooth – and a little sweetness upfront, followed by some creamy spice and then gradually unfurling petals of citrus.

Finish
Fragrant lemongrass with
a touch of ginger and the lingering zest of grapefruit.

Comments
A bright and vibrant gin with a marvellous complexity and fabulous mixing potential; superb in a Gin & Tonic or with ginger ale.

Score

8.9

Nose
Rich and complex with gooseberries, lemons and limes. Some floral notes follow with basil, mint, coriander and grains of paradise.

Palate
Full and creamy with a bitter almond edge. Agreeably balanced, slightly herbal with juniper and some citrus fruitiness.

Finish
Creamy and gentle with a lingering light fruitiness.

Comments
A pleasant drink, mild but full of character. Pair with elderflower tonic or in a Gimlet (two parts gin, lime and soda) garnish with edible flowers and/or a wheel of lime.

Score

8.5
