Nolet's Silver Gin

Lovely raspberry notes

This one packs a punch.

Fun smell: earthy, metallic, like a wet cave. Flavor is nice and slight burn on the back of the throat

Nose - peach, rose, effervescent raspberry, vanilla cream, jasmine, juniper, sweet floral notes, perfume, apple skin, mild to moderate ethanol burn. Taste - rose, peach and cream, raspberry, vanilla, caramel, cherry, juniper, sweet floral tea, apple skin tannin, ginger, white pepper, licorice, mild alcohol bite, finishing medium long with rose, peach, raspberry, and juniper flavors. The nose on this one really surprised me. The peach, raspberry, and rose notes leap out of the glass and are easily discerned from the rest of the bouquet. I like it, especially since the juniper plays a supporting role, but I think I just don’t quite like the individual components as much as those in the Drumshanbo Gunpowder gin. After tasting this and reflecting on the rest of the gins I’ve tried, I’m going to raise my rating on the Drumshanbo and align this one with Empress. A big thank you to @ContemplativeFox providing this sample. I would have never thought to try this one otherwise.
