Blind Tiger Imperial Secrets
Distilled Gin — Belgium, Belgium
Reviewed
February 17, 2022
1 of 2 Blind Tiger gins imported by DeVore from Belgium to the USA (the other being Piper Cubeba). The distinguishing attribute if this gin is the inclusions of 3 teas.
Manufacturer's notes:
11 BOTANICALS
Juniper berries, coriander seeds, grains of paradise, angelica root, iris root, lemon peel, bitter almond,
lemon grass, china yunnan matured tea, imperial pu-erh himalaya secret of cashmere black tea,
assam black tea harmutty.
THE PROCESS
Our botanicals (except the teas) are macerated & distilled in a copper pot still (400l). We add the separate distilled
teas afterwards.
My Tasting:
2.17.22
Served: Neat, flute
Bottle Open: <3 Months
Aroma: Juniper, green pine wood, grains of paradise, light notes of almond. Collectively smells a bit like dragonfruit.
Flavor: First impression is very fruity with light pine notes. Aerating in the mouth gives classic "dusty" angelica and coriander impressions. The fruity, but not bright, finish once again gives impressions of dragonfruit (lack of savory keeps it from being papaya/guava)
