First Impressions
Tiptree English Rhubarb Gin Liqueur continues the Wilkin & Sons approach of farm-fresh fruit in Hayman's gin. The rhubarb is unmistakably real — not artificial, not candied, just wholesome farm-fresh rhubarb evoking greenhouses and crumble.
Tasting
The nose is farm-fresh rhubarb with underlying sweetness, evocative of greenhouses and nostalgia. On the palate, the distinctive sweet-tart combination is silky smooth with warmth, the Hayman's gin sharpness creeping through. The finish is surprisingly long and warming.
The Bottom Line
Tiptree English Rhubarb earns a 7 for rhubarb crumble in a glass. The Wilkin & Sons fruit expertise ensures genuine character, and the warming finish shows that the Hayman's base provides proper gin backbone. Best over ice or with Prosecco for a Rhubarb Gin Royale.
