Tasting Notes

Nose

Bright pine notes flooding the nose, followed by earthy heather grounding the vibrant juniper — resinous Scots pine character with gentle heather fragrance and floral sweetness

Palate

Delicately floral with bold zesty lemon citrus, pine coming to the fore with refreshing resiny flavour, balanced by floral heather elegance — milk thistle adding earthy bitterness at mid-palate

Finish

Beautifully smooth and refined — pine fading, leaving lingering heather sweetness with a touch of earthy dryness from the milk thistle

Expert Review

8/10

The classic 1947 Bombay recipe enhanced with four indigenous Scottish botanicals — heather, milk thistle, bog myrtle, and Scots pine — adding Highland terroir to an Edinburgh distillery's gin.
