Nose
Exotic, floral, and fruity with aromas of citrus blossom and leaves, and a mix of kumquat and mandarin.

Palate
A notably elegant palate with a silky, sippable texture and delicious notes of Turkish delight and fruit jellies. Zesty citrus, too, and with lots of lemon and lime.

Finish
A sparkle of citrus peel combined with notes of spice and earthy angelica.

Comments
A bright and lively gin with a balanced sweetness that works especially well in an Evans-style G&T.

Score

9.0

Nose
It’s definitely citrussy, with notes of sweet orange, grapefruit and Amalfi lemon. It’s rich and buttery, like raw lemon cake batter. There are touches of floral blackcurrant and black tea, too.

Palate
Pink and ruby grapefruit alongside more of that lemon cake and some light juniper and floral notes that give the oily mouthfeel a lift.

Finish
Resinous juniper and a touch of geranium contend with oily citrus on the finish.

Comments
A delightfully rich gin that didn’t overplay its signature flavours and would pair nicely with ginger ale.

Score

8.5
