Bethany
Nose: Deliciously light. Zesty lemon peel, herbal lemon thyme and juniper, all washed over by a salty sea breeze.
Palate: Smooth and clean with a really plump texture. Resinous juniper and lemon peel upfront, with continuing salinity and herbaceous notes.
Finish: Lemony pine notes and a mellow dusting of coriander, nutmeg and angelica see this out.
Comments: This was exquisite – excellent flavour balance, intensity and texture. Now, can someone please make me a Martini with it?!
David
Nose: Floral with hints of hay, which is combined with a sweetness that moves to aromas of honeycomb and citrusy orange.
Palate: Initial oily citrus flavours develop into resinous notes of juniper and the spicy citrus of coriander. Over time, it moves to warmer notes of candied orange peel.
Finish: Lingering notes of pepper combined with the bittersweet tang of orange marmalade.
Comments: A citrus-forward gin with a good level of spice, which would be great in a Gin Old-Fashioned.
