Tasting Notes
"On first sniff one can tell that any London Dry-style inspiration has been left behind, and the exotic and wild tones of the New Western gin movement are enthusiastically endorsed. There are spicy flavors of mountain ginger and exotic flavors of Asian spice with only a hint of juniper. The palate has admirable richness and continues with highly flavorful tones of dried violet and cardamom pods before finishing with lingering hints of anise and coriander."
