A release of 1000 bottles in April 2019, this Special Edition Portobello Road Local Heroes 3 Gin was made in collaboration with Dire Straits Frontman, Mark Knopfler.
Produced at The Distillery using a copper pot still called King Henry with fresh lime zest, cucumber and olive oil added to Portobello’s usual botanical line-up.
Sampled on 02/05/2019
(sample bottle No. 0998) Crystal clear.
Piney juniper with zesty lime, green apple skin, cucumber, macadamia nut and white pepper. Cucumber is amplified with a splash of water.
Freshening zesty lime and piney juniper with cucumber and light peppery spice. Velvety mouthfeel – especially with water.
Influence of lime and cucumber continue in the long finish.
As you expect from a Portobello Road Gin, this limited Mark Knopfler edition is juniper-led and classic London dry in style but with subtle notes of lime and cucumber which make it fresh and summery.
