Soft floral blackthorn with gentle vanilla sweetness — touch of nuttiness and mellow woody notes

Jammy sweetness up front before gradually getting drier and tarter — the Hernö gin's floral character visible beneath the sloe fruit
Finish
Balanced interplay between sweetness and dryness — the sloe tartness and Hernö's meadowsweet in gentle conversation
