David T. Smith

Nose
Succulent, juicy peach notes: jammy with a touch of stewed fruit, and aromas of apricot and nectarine.

Palate
Slightly sweet notes of fruit syrup up-front, reminiscent of tinned peaches, combined with creamy vanilla. More tropical notes of pineapple and mango then develop.

Finish
Lingering notes of crystallised sugar and peach-flavoured boiled sweets.

Comments
A fruity gin with a dash of sweetness, although I’d ideally like more gin character.

Score

7.6

Nose
Peachy foam sweets, very weak blackcurrant cordial and a dash of coriander. A slight milky note of natural yoghurt.

Palate
Sweet notes of raspberry conserve – the smooth, seedless kind – on a raisin-studded fruit scone with clotted cream, with pops of raspberry sherbet. A touch of underripe plum.

Finish
It’s syrupy on the finish with notes of Maraschino cherry and raspberry wine gums.

Comments
Adding a dash of this to a drink with raspberry flavours, such as a Floradora, could have good results.

Score

7.8
