Tastes

Strongly medicinal and bracing. Prominent juniper overwhelms other botanicals. Rye base adds some pepper, which results in a pretty rough sip, and a gin that isn't smooth enough to mix in more subtle cocktails. The distiller has an exciting and geeky approach, so I hope future gin recipes are much more to my liking (others I was with liked this gin more than I did, but I think I was the most avid gin drinker of the group).

Herbal and complex, yet well balanced with some floral and spice. A great value at under $25 - I love it both mixed in cocktails and simply mixed with a splash of seltzer.
