Avaliação e degustação

Experimentado em 02/03/2017

Aparência:

Crystal clear.

Aroma:

Cracked black pepper, pine, coriander and lemongrass. Faint note of nut and hairspray.

Sabor:

Juniper leads the piney palate with obvious silver birch influences. It’s an attractive palate with subtle nut, earthiness, citrus and faint sweet red berry notes.

Aftertaste:

Cleansing pepper, pine and silver birch finish.

No geral:

We found the nose off-putting but then were surprised by just how much we liked the taste of this silver birch influenced gin. Although bottled at a mere 37.5% alc./vol. Blackdown is also we’ll-priced compared to some other “craft” gins.
