Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green | |
Conclusion | A very well made gin with a well balanced mix of floral, citrus and juniper elements. |
Nose | A glorious mix of juniper, fresh citrus and herbs. Reminiscent of lavender, herbs of Provence, mint, coriander and liquorice with lemon, lime and fresh orange. |
Palate | Dry and floral. The juniper is prominent but there is also a surprisingly floral element. Flavours of lavender, lemon, orange, rose, patchouli, lemon balm and gentle spice |
Finish | The spiced element keeps on going, becoming more peppery and hot. |
