Phoebe
Nose: Some really bright citrus notes come through on the nose immediately, like grated lemon zest mixed into Victoria sponge cake batter.
Palate: I enjoyed sitting with this for a while with refreshing citrus coating the tongue. More floral than the vanilla essence.
Finish: Closing out our time here with lingering lemon zest and a surprising appearance from baking spices to warm things up.
Comments: This should certainly be enjoyed long; there’s lots going on and the addition of tonic only adds to that.

Nose: Orange sorbet and lemon syllabub: vibrant, bright and inviting. A little creamy coconut butter wraps up the nose nicely.
Palate: Fruity and succulent. A full palate of citrus notes and the modest sweetness of melon. Additional complexity appears in the form of menthol, pepper and a clean leafiness.
Finish: More menthol on the finish with sweet pepper and grapefruit. Lingering and oily.
Comments: A lively spirit that’s packed full of flavour. Easy to enjoy on the rocks or paired with tonic.
