  • This is a fairly flexible gin for cocktails as the floral notes are present, but don't take over the more traditional botanicals as some new brands of gin do.

  • I expect the deco labeling will telegraph to drinkers that this is an ultra-modern, “progressive” gin, but the reality is that it’s old school in the best possible ways.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Huge, big, bright on the nose and full of pepper, lemongrass, coriander, juniper and basil. Tons going on!

  • Taste:

    Packed with botanicals on the palate as well, lemon, pepper, grapefruit, juniper, some coriander and lavender pop. It’s lovely, complex, there’s tons going on in a way that’s complimentary and not distracting.

  • Finish:

    Clean, crisp, finish that leaves behind lemon and grapefruit with a hint of salinity and juniper.

  • Overall:

    Lovely throughout, this gin is an instant classic, full of life, flavor and fun.
