Bethany
Nose: Sweet anise note of liquorice. Angelica, coriander, and cardamom, accompanied by a creamy woodiness. Hints of lemon and
Earl Grey tea.
Palate: Liquorice and spices sweeten with the fragrance of rose. Then spicier aniseed notes, cardamom pods, and piney juniper becoming more prominent.
Finish: A mentholaniseed finish with notes of juniper, fennel, and a touch of citrus.
Comments: This has a lovely character. A touch of floral tonic could play up the sweeter notes.
8.0
David
Nose: A pleasant and complex array of citrus, including lemon and orange, as well as gingery lemongrass. Aromatic cocoa powder and dried violets are there, too.
Palate: A sweet, almost aquavit-like start with notes of caraway, fennel, and anise, before liquorice and orris with delightfully woody pine.
Finish: Dry, with a floral flourish and lingering woody pine.
Comments: An intriguing and delightful gin that is an absolute pleasure to sip neat.
