Modern GinAlso has been referred to as "Contemporary", "New Western", "New Wave", and "New American". This style is not legally defined. In general, this category of gin, while it does contain juniper, places less of an emphasis on this botanical. Other botanicals not classically used in London Dry gins are often utilized and often highlight botanicals grown in the region the gin is produced. Most produced as either London Dry or Distilled Gins.
Tasting Notes
"Watermelon Jolly Ranchers show up first on the nose, followed by candied orange chews, angelica root, and pink peppercorns. A viscous palate is dominated by licorice, while also offering gentian, spearmint, dandelion greens, and bay leaf. The finish continues on the anise and herbaceous track, with juniper and rosemary. A well-made distillate but for licorice lovers only."
