Tasting Notes

Nose

Citrus-led with subtle spice, plum and caramel aromas from the Amontillado cask

Palate

Honey and citrus developing into aromatic coriander, juniper and orange with subtle ginger undercurrent — robustly expressed and harmoniously integrated despite the high proof

Finish

Lightly tannic citrus and pepper fade with tingling heat — juniper exits first, leaving oranges, honey and ginger lingering

Expert Review

8/10

Fords' overproof gin rested in Amontillado Sherry casks for three weeks — citrus-led with honey, plum, and caramel from the cask, at a robust 54.5% ABV. The bartender's gin turned up to eleven.
