  • Really interesting gin here from McQueen and while it’s far more aromatic than I typically roll with, the fruits and lavender could have some really fascinating cocktail experiences ahead of them.

  • Lavender leads the way on a floral palate with an oily mouthfeel, along with anise, lemon, and sage.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Bold, fruity and sweet, this reminds me of those fruity Dots candies, couples with some pepper and a pop of ethanol.

  • Taste:

    Pleasant and sweet on the palate, full of lavender, strawberry and grape notes. Orange puree, vanilla been. It’s sweet and floral with a good bit of candied fruits and artificial fruitiness.

  • Finish:

    Long finish, leaning heavy on pepper, lavender and a hint of Juniper.

  • Overall:

    Really interesting gin here from McQueen and while it’s far more aromatic than I typically roll with, the fruits and lavender could have some really fascinating cocktail experiences ahead of them.
