Tasting Notes

Nose: Initial classic juniper dominance, bright and crisp, with underlying notes of fresh citrus zest – particularly lemon and a hint of orange peel. A subtle whisper of coriander and angelica root adds a peppery, earthy complexity. Very clean and inviting.

Palate: The palate confirms the London Dry style with a pronounced but well-integrated juniper core. A zesty burst of citrus (lemon, lime) brightens the mid-palate, followed by a dry, herbaceous character. Cardamom and black pepper notes emerge, providing a gentle warmth and spice without overwhelming the botanicals. The mouthfeel is smooth and relatively light-bodied for an 80 proof gin, indicating a clean distillation.

Finish: Medium-length, dry, and clean. The juniper lingers pleasantly, fading into a subtle peppery spice and a refreshing citrus pith bitterness. No harsh alcohol burn, just a crisp, dry fade that invites another sip. Very classic and true to its style.
