Tasting Notes

Nose

Bright citrus — vanilla sweetness lifting the lemon and grapefruit notes, clean and inviting

Palate

Citrus-forward — vanilla undertones making the citrus taste sweeter and more prominent, juniper providing backbone, smooth and approachable, the overnight maceration in hot spirit extracting maximum flavour

Finish

Clean citrus — vanilla warmth, gentle juniper, refreshing and moreish

Expert Review

6/10

One of four original gins launched on 3rd June 2016 by Vicky and Dale McQueen in Callander. Not a flavoured gin — all flavours come from botanicals macerated overnight in hot spirit before distillation. Hints of vanilla making citrus notes taste more prominent. Remarkable value.
