Tasting Notes
"This gin has a jammy, brambly nose of fresh berries, candied citrus, Starburst candies, and chamomile tea. On the palate, minty, wintergreen flavors mingle with bright raspberry, rhubarb, blackberry, cherry, and blueberry along with spicy pepper and tonka-like flavors (vanilla, cherry bark, nutmeg). It enters with a candied berry sweetness, but has a drying, earthy (like black tea), distinctly juniper finish with a slight nuttiness. "
