A 30 ml pour into a small snifter at room temperature. Several swirls around the inside of the glass, then poking my beak in. Yeh, man, heavenly! Mostly citrus, herbal and floral notes. Juniper is present, natch, but subdued - a good thing.
There’re in fact many of the same flavor notes one might expect to find in a complex whiskey - minus the oak barreling notes.
After the huge and complex nose the taste is almost a letdown, but an easily fulfilled obligation, all the same. Wonderful stuff! Never’d have thought the Germans would be the experts on gin!
