First Impressions
Rock Rose Spring Edition uses foraged spring ingredients from the Caithness landscape — coltsfoot from the distillery garden for sweetness, gorse flowers for coconut-like aroma, and dandelion for earthy liquorice balance. Refreshment for a Highland spring day.
Tasting
The nose is clean and fresh with lime, herbaceous with citrus and juniper. On the palate, coltsfoot sweetness with coconut gorse, dandelion liquorice, light and delicate. The finish is cooling and fresh.
The Bottom Line
Rock Rose Spring earns a 7 for seasonal gin at its most authentic. The spring-foraged botanicals create a lighter, more delicate character than the Original, perfect for the season. Serve with tonic and coriander leaf.
