Tasting Notes
"Fall-time spice can often become too cloying or fake-tasting as pumpkin-spice lattes and some Octoberfest beers have shown. Happily, the folks at Brandywine Branch have created a gin with aromatics that suggest autumn flavors without being a cinnamon bomb. Traditional gin botanicals keep the spirit’s identity intact with pleasant flavors of juniper and coriander. The added malted spirit makes for a rich, oily spirit with plenty of mouthfeel and a touch of white-whiskey character. Certainly far from traditional, but this is a gin with plenty of character and seasonal charm."
