Tasting Notes
Nose
Full-bodied — fruity berries and juniper, purple heather adding a subtle floral sweetness, Highland freshness
Palate
Peppery and floral — light on the tip of the tongue before filling with cubeb heat, heather florals balancing the spice, then dying away to leave lemony sweetness, cardamom adding warmth
Finish
Slightly sharp — smoothed by sherbet lemon notes, the purple heather's brief summer bloom captured permanently in the glass, warming and moreish
Expert Review
7/10From Ice & Fire Distillery in Caithness — purple heather tips picked from the distillery's doorstep, blooming only in July and August. A full-bodied Highland gin with fruity berries, juniper, and a finish smoothed by sherbet lemon. The spirit of the Highlands in every sip.
