Back on the gin bandwagon and got hold of a 50ml of this to sample.
Trying straight it tasted like citrus floral soap. Nice lightly viscous mouth feel. Initially I was thinking this isn't really a style that rocks my boat but not to shabby but then after a bit thought maybe a bit to soapy floral like for me. I prefer strong juniper citrus notes and this is not that. Still very nuanced and well balanced and put together so if you do prefer light citrus floral profile then this is a good example.
Mixing with an Alchemy & Tonic Grapefruit and Thyme tonic water (NZs newest tonic offering) it mixes well but very faint influence despite ~ 1:4 ratio. I'm definitely enjoying this but there is a longish list I'd prefer over this one.
