Review and Tasting

Sampled on 25/05/2018

Appearance:

Clear, light orange. Somewhat reminiscent of pink gin.

Aroma:

Zesty orange and pink grapefruit citrus notes overwhelm underlying classic junipery gin aromas.

Taste:

Sweet and zesty orange bursts forth, but dry piney juniper follows and builds towards the finish.

Aftertaste:

Piney juniper rather than orange dominates the finish with fading cooked Saville orange/marmalade.

Overall:

Faintly sweet but balanced with orange notes that are strong enough to make this reminiscent of a dry curacao. Its colour (ginger) gives this gin a Lucozade look and the mention of "other natural flavourings, colours" on the back label suggests this hue is not just derived from steeping orange peel. Flor De Sevilla delivers what it promises, an orange marmalade flavoured gin.
