Tasting Notes
Nose
Fresh juniper — sweet orange and lemon, earthy angelica, softer and rounder than London Dry
Palate
Full-bodied and smooth — earthier than London Dry, juniper present but rounded rather than aggressive, sweet citrus peel, cardamom warmth, the Dartmoor water adding softness, the Dominican monastery's 230 years of spirit evident in the balance
Finish
Soft and rounded — earthy and clean, the Plymouth style's gentle authority, longer than expected, warming and satisfying
Expert Review
8/10England's oldest working gin distillery — a former Dominican monastery since 1793. The only gin with a geographical indication: it can only be made here, in Plymouth. Softer and more full-bodied than London Dry, with earthier, more rounded character. Seven botanicals and Dartmoor water.
