Tasting Notes

Nose

Inviting Earl Grey tea bouquet — rich earthy juniper elevated by orange citrus, the Cumbrian heritage immediately present

Palate

Juniper and citrus joined by warm black pepper — fourteen botanicals creating Lake District depth, bilberry adding subtle berry sweetness, heather providing floral moorland character, the 46.6% carrying everything with generous authority

Finish

Zesty and spiced — black pepper lasting long with juniper and citrus, the Lake District National Park water adding characteristic softness

Expert Review

8/10

Cumbrian juniper — one of the county's oldest plant species — with bilberry, heather and hawthorn native to the Lake District. Fourteen botanicals infused overnight with National Park water at a generous 46.6%. Earl Grey tea nose with rich earthy juniper, then warm black pepper lasting into a zesty spiced finish.
