Boldt Genever-Style Gin
Distiller Score 95
This product shows a lovely golden color and a satisfying aroma of honey graham cracker, toasted sawdust, and a hint of crisp spruce needles and roasted exotic spices. The palate has a nice weight with more of the candied citrus and other botanicals making their influence felt. This is a very well executed Genever-style product with many classic components but a touch less juniper than its European counterparts. The combination of the local grain, craft distillation, and regional botanicals make for a very welcome addition to a relatively rare category.
