Nose
A sublime nose that really captures passion fruit, being wonderfully reminiscent of a passion fruit tart or coulis.
Palate
A silky sweetness up-front, followed by the dry botanical character of juniper, angelica, and coriander. Floral, fruity notes of passion fruit then develop.
Finish
Creamy notes of vanilla on the finish with the lingering tartness of the passion fruit.
Comments
A lively gin that is perfectly suited to summer; serve with plenty of ice and your mixer of choice.
Score
8.9

Nose
The passionfruit is clear and bright, with notes of those freshly scraped, slippery seeds. It reminds me of Solero ice creams, with a glass of peach cordial on the side.
Palate
Prominent, juicy passionfruit is tempered by more classic botanical notes that start to creep in from the back. Peach slices and vanilla yoghurt.
Finish
A nice drying sensation with prickles of juniper and a little lingering fruity sweetness.
Comments
Cleanly flavoured and well balanced, this would add a fruity twist to a number of classic gin drinks.
