Tasting Notes
"The aromas in Summertide show dense floral character reminiscent of a botanical garden in full bloom. The palate is rich with a good sense of weight and the bouquet of sweet, dark roses is expertly balanced by refreshing lemon peel and a touch of juniper. The gin is distinct and nontraditional, but certainly of high quality and complex enough to be enjoyed on its own. The intense floral flavors, however, may be too far of a departure from classic London Dry to enjoy in some cocktails. "
