Review and Tasting

Sampled on 22/03/2021

Appearance:

Crystal clear.

Aroma:

Along with pine forest, there's freshly cut juicy cucumber and fragrant verdant dill.

Taste:

Cucumber is so pronounced on entry that Romeo's could pass as a "cucumber-flavoured gin," but piney juniper, blanched almond and fresh dill appear as the palate unfolds.

Aftertaste:

Cucumber, piney juniper, dill, and faint floral lavender.

Overall:

Traditional/old-school gin lovers are warned, this is a "contemporary gin" with the juniper dialled back and fresh cucumber arguably the most dominant botanical. However, if that's the kind of "gin" you're after then Romeo's is a good example of what's become known as the New Western Style.
