Tasting Notes

Nose

Immensely herby and aromatic — heather standing out brilliantly alongside fresh orange and oaky juniper

Palate

Citrus, spice and a punch of wild Hebridean heather — strong spicy notes from juniper, cassia and peppery cubeb berries, double botanical concentration giving remarkable intensity

Finish

Essential oils releasing as the gin opens — long with heather warmth and juniper persistence

Expert Review

8/10

Spirit of the Year 2024 — double the standard botanical concentration, foraged Hebridean heather, clear in the bottle but cloudy in the glass. Island gin-making at its most distinctive.
