Rosemary spiced gin with grape juice and elderflower: very aromatic

I think the elderflower a little overwhelming, I’d reduce that down next time. The rosemary only really appears in the aftertaste.

Round, fruity aftertaste with the rosemary and gin aromatics twinkling top of palate. The grape taints the elderflower, softening the clarity of it and the herbal cut of the gin. Certainly some interesting subtlties... Used lemon, and lime might be preferable...
