Phoebe
Nose: Fresh and classic upon our first introduction, but look a little deeper and it has a leafy and herbaceous way with it.
Palate: Again, the first sip is delightfully delicate, then it begins to follow through with a slip of lemon to complement the remaining herbal hit.
Finish: Some light floral lavender making an appearance. It’s quite heavenly actually.
Comments: This kept me guessing throughout. It strikes me as the perfect addition to a cheeky little Martini.
David
Nose: A crisp nose with lime and a dash of minerality. A tiny hint of crème brûlée, too.
Palate: A superb, luxurious texture: the gin really fills the mouth and coats the tongue. Soft flavours of juniper and citrus linger on the palate.
Finish: Dry, with a delicate floral sweetness, woody pepper and a gentle, comforting alcohol warmth.
Comments: A lovely example of a classic gin. This has a restrained - almost understated - character that would make a handsome dry Martini.
