Tasting Notes
Nose
Juniper and savoury — soft sea salinity, the Grand Banks dulse adding maritime character, coastal and inviting
Palate
Classic juniper and savoury — soft salinity floating through, the seaweed's brininess balanced by sweetness, earthy juniper depth, slightly bitter spice adding complexity, coastal sweet notes, the chef-turned-distiller's palate evident
Finish
Liquorice and salinity — the Grand Banks leaving their mark, a little light but good flavours, well-made and maritime
