First Impressions
G'Vine June Pear & Cardamom is part of the June range — softer, fruitier expressions designed for summer cocktails. The Ugni Blanc grape spirit base provides unique roundness, enriched with pear and cardamom infusion. At 37.5%, it sits at the lighter end.
Tasting
The nose delivers intense juicy ripe pear with floral nuances and cardamom giving oriental depth. On the palate, fruity and soft with dominant sweet pear meeting spicy cardamom elegance — citrus freshness providing balance and the grape base lending smooth texture. The finish is pleasantly long with lingering fruit and exotic spice.
The Bottom Line
G'Vine June Pear & Cardamom earns a 6 — it delivers exactly what it promises as a soft, indulgent fruit gin. The grape spirit base gives it a roundness that grain-based alternatives lack, and the cardamom adds spice interest. At 37.5% the gin character is light, but for summer cocktails and spritzes it serves its purpose well.
