Tasting Notes

Nose

Intensely floral — sharp perfume-like lilac quality, earthy juniper and spicy cardamom with lemon-orange citrus behind the floral intensity

Palate

Strong floral flavours leading — ginger-like cardamom spiciness heating the palate, lavender and lilac omnipresent over juniper and orange citrus, firm and confident at 47%

Finish

Angelica and coriander warmth unfolding — liquorice root sweetness, the gardenia's jasmine-like aroma persisting with bergamot elegance, the blue colour fading to pink when acidic tonic is added

Expert Review

7/10

The natural turquoise-blue colour comes from gardenia flower infusion — twelve botanicals at a serious 47% from Thames Distillers. Intensely floral with sharp lavender-lilac perfume, ginger-like cardamom spice, and the bergamot adding final elegance. A visual and flavour statement.
