Tasting Notes
Nose
Zesty lime and orange citrus — pine-fresh juniper, cracked black pepper, parma violets from orris root, a subtle floral hop character in the background
Palate
Dry piney juniper — pronounced cracked black pepper and cinnamon spice, sea salt, zesty citrus, faint floral hop notes adding complexity without bitterness
Finish
Dry and piney — black pepper warmth lingering, the hop florals providing a gentle bitter-floral close unique among gins
Expert Review
7/10A Sussex gin where each of the eight botanicals — including local hops — is distilled separately in copper pot stills and then blended. The hops operate as a subtle background floral rather than dominating, creating a beautifully balanced spirit with a unique character.
