Tasting Notes
Nose
Rich ripe plum fruit with a hint of vanilla — warm and inviting
Palate
Jammy sweetness balanced by tartness — vanilla from the American white oak elevating natural damson sweetness, no added sugar needed
Finish
Dark fruit richness with vanilla warmth — the oak ageing adding depth that simple damson gins lack
Expert Review
7/10Pressed damson juice blended with Dockyard Gin and aged in virgin American white oak — no added sugar, vanilla from the oak offsetting tartness naturally. Deep purple and delicious.
