Bethany

Nose: It’s fairly shy at first, but touches of resinous juniper, citrus and earthy, almost smoky spice come through with time.

Palate: A grainy sweetness develops, like fennel seedstudde­d bread dough. The juniper feels oily, lending a nice texture. There’s a gradual, warming heat.

Finish: Fades away fairly swiftly with a little zesty citrus.

Comments: A bit tingly with the ABV, but there are some nice flavours here – lengthenin­g it with tonic could tease them out.

David

Nose: Bright lime is joined by rich and resinous green juniper. An inviting nose that promises a lot.

Palate: Lovely, oily juniper up front with pine and cedar. The citrus spiciness of coriander seed is joined by zesty lemon and lime with a sprinkle of sweetness.

Finish: A little sweet, woody spice on the finish, along with leafy cilantro and a final flourish of peppery juniper here.

Comments: A simply splendid gin: bold and complex with exceptiona­l alcohol integratio­n.
