David
Nose: Plump red berry notes – apple and blackberry with strawberry sherbet and a subtle, green leafiness.
Palate: Sweet, confectionery red fruit, reminiscent of fruit pastilles; this develops into notes of violet and dry earthiness.
Finish: Warm, with the spirit coming through, before a slight, creamy raspberry note.
Comments: Restrained on the juniper with berry notes taking the lead; the alcohol needs a little more balance. 7.1
Sam
Nose: Fruit notes forward; red berries, blackberries – almost a summer fruit cordial. Citrus peel undertones and a little bit of alcohol prickle.
Palate: More of the fruit – nails its colours to the mast this one. Forest fruits come to the fore, then the citrus notes from the nose. The fruit notes are very satisfying.
Finish: A lingering mix of the spirit note and the fruit. Not unappealing. Bitter peels.
Comments: A fruity number that will appeal to many. Will make a refreshing long drink with tonic or soda water.
