First Impressions
Fisher's Gin is distilled on the Suffolk coast — botanist James Firth forages rock samphire, wood aven root, spignel and bog myrtle from the nearby coastline. These join traditional gin botanicals for a genuinely coastal spirit produced by Adnams.
Tasting
The nose is fragrant with pine-fresh juniper, mild cardamom and distinct spignel aroma. On the palate, piney juniper with cardamom-pepper, herbal complexity, zippy citrus freshness, savoury samphire and sea buckthorn. The finish is long, pine-fresh and moderately spiced.
The Bottom Line
Fisher's earns an 8 for the most botanically authentic coastal gin available. Having an actual botanist forage your ingredients ensures genuine coastal character, and the spignel and bog myrtle are botanicals you will not find in any other gin. Suffolk's hidden gem.
