Review and Tasting


Sampled on 10/08/2017

Appearance:

Crystal clear.

Aroma:

Grassy aloe vera, lemongrass/lime zest, white pepper, piney juniper and cucumber.

Taste:

Cracked black pepper, white pepper spice, green cardamom, lemongrass and piney juniper is smoothed by aloe vera-like cucumber. Subtle floral notes.

Aftertaste:

Grassy, lemongrass, aloe vera and peppery spice. Short to medium finish.

Overall:

A big bold gin, distinctly American-style gin with plenty of spice - black pepper, white pepper spice, green cardamom, lemongrass and piney juniper - yet smoothed and made interesting by cucumber and honeysuckle, which present as an aloe vera-like flavour in this gin.
