Tasting Notes
"The coriander and citrus peels are first to hit your senses. Juniper is present, of course, but doesn't play a major part of the aroma. The gin is soft on the palate and long on the coriander and cardamom. The gin is a bit cinnamon-y on the finish and provides the gentlest of bites-- a nibble really. If you are making a martini, you may want to go light on the vermouth here. A better alternative would be to have a Pink Gin cocktail instead."
