House Review
Nose:
Big, floral, bright with an undercurrent of acidity and a pop of crisp apple.
Taste:
Sweet at first, a nice hit of sweetness, cinnamon, juniper and lavender paired with crisp apple, not too sweet, not too acidic. Well balanced, rich on the palate. Really lovely stuff here.
Finish:
Long finish. Apple cinnamon, apple butter, lavender, coriander, juniper and orange peel.
Overall:
This is blowing me away - what a concept. Gin finished in an apple brandy barrel - it’s delicious, balanced, lovely.
Score:
88
