Blackwater Strawberry Gin

40% Vol
The strawberries for this gin were grown just outside Enniscorthy in County Wexford, by Susan Kearns. For maximum flavour the strawberries are distilled but even more are added before bottling to enhance the flavour. A little sweet on the palate but with very nice fruitiness. Not overpoweringly flavoured but very much a classic London dry styled gin with nice touches of citrus and juniper. This is a limited edition gin and will not last long!

Very subtle touches of strawberries with juniper, lemon and orange. Some hints of coriander and other spices.
Palate
A little sweet. Very nice fruitiness, not overpoweringly flavoured of strawberries at all. Subtle and fruity but still very much a classic London dry styled gin. Nice touches of citrus and juniper.
