Wine Enthusiast 90 points - Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2011 Finalist. Wonderfully fresh aromatics with clean citrus notes. The texture is supple while vibrant with well proportioned botanicals and citrus emerging on the finish.
Nosing passes find a peppery bouquet of zesty, mildly citrusy scents of juniper, cedar, Christmas tree sap, coriander and orris root. Entry is silky, smooth, moderately sweet and keenly pine-like; the midpalate is elegant, floral, and sweet with a touch of sap. Finishes clean, citrusy and spicy. Better than its sibling, Bombay Sapphire.
"The zesty
piquant aroma of juniper berries
peppermint
eucalyptus and even faint echoes of cinnamon enchant the olfactory sense through four nosings. This medium-bodied gin has loads of pungent
prickly flavor elements
especially a briary
juniper
outdoorsy freshness that's totally captivating. The elegant finish is full
clean and flecked with spice."
