First Impressions
LoneWolf Mexican Lime & Cactus takes the original LoneWolf recipe and adds Mexican lime alongside Queen of the Night — a fragrant cactus flower that only blooms after dark — plus cactus juice that brings notes of strawberry and watermelon. At 38%, lighter than the Original but bursting with citrus.
Tasting
The nose delivers bold lime citrus with sweet watermelon and lychee from the cactus and floral hints. On the palate, heaps of lively lime citrus with a good juniper core — watermelon and lychee sweetness from the cactus juice, zesty Mexican lime brightness. The finish is fresh and zesty with lime lingering.
The Bottom Line
LoneWolf Mexican Lime earns a 7 for a creative flavoured gin where the cactus adds genuinely unexpected character. The watermelon-lychee notes from cactus juice are unlike anything other flavoured gins offer. Best with elderflower tonic and a citrus twist.
