Brooklyn Gin

Juniper forward, laced with citrus. Not sweet. A tasty standard

Lemon and floral on the nose. It's straightforward in flavour, juniper forward, with lemongrass, anise, vanilla. Soft on the palate, like mango flesh. Just not that exciting, but the bottle sure looks good on the bar.

Wet and heavy with orange oils, and as such, makes for a poor martini, which is where I first tried it. Works far better in a citrusy Vesper and presumably in a G&T and on the rocks. Not bad, but not my type. I do like the heavy, brass-like cork that could probably K.O. a person from 20 feet away if your pitching arm was up to it.
