Tasting Notes

Nose

Full Bombay spice — cardamom and clove at intended intensity, the 1947 recipe at full volume

Palate

Richer and warmer than standard Pickering's — the original recipe proportions creating more spice intensity, cardamom and clove dominating with juniper

Finish

Warm and spiced — the 1947 vision fully realised in Edinburgh's Summerhall

First Impressions

Pickering's Original 1947 unleashes the full Bombay recipe at original proportions — more spice intensity than the standard expression.

The Bottom Line

Pickering's 1947 earns a 7 for the original recipe at full spice intensity.
