Prairie Organic Gin

Lots of pine smell and taste. Very floral

Rating: 8/23 Fairly sweet, a bit harsh, somewhat peppery, a bit floral, some clean water, some alcohol, a bit of rubber. I think I was a little harsh before with my rating, but not too harsh.

It has a kind of floral bit still piney smell with some other herbs and a bit of spice - quite like potpourri. There's some alcohol on the nose, but not too much. It's also a tad fruity. It's a fascinating and quite pleasant nose. The palate, sadly comes straight out with water and bitterness. I do get the potpourri flavors and they are quite good, but there's this bitter flavor like charred oak with some sulfur really getting in the way. As much as I enjoy that potpourri personality on the nose (and also the palate to the extent that I can taste it), the flaws are overwhelming. It's fairly harsh too as it nears the end. The burn isn't the most excessive, but it doesn't have a nice pepper flavor going with it. It does at least taste roughly like gin though.

Quite subtle flavours

Lavender nose, very light flavor, a tad sweet. Pretty much disappears in a cocktail.
