Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green
Nose Citrus and Floral notes with a hint of spiciness
Palate First predominant lemon followed by hint of orange. Mid palette there is a pepper-like warmth from the emerging cardamom and juniper with a wonderful counterpoint from mint-like components of the cardomom. As the Gin passes the palette, warm spice notes become prominent. Cassia lingers in the aftertaste.
