Damrak Gin

Distilled Gin — Netherlands

Reviewed May 5, 2020
3.75
3.75 out of 5 stars
A dutch gin, yea I couldn't resist, this one is just begging for a sampling. Nose: Honeysuckle! yes it is notable, along with some unusual citrus, kumquat maybe, not quite a rampur but close. While I like whats going on with the nose, straight tasting it hits with too much sugar. This one is going to be too sweet, but on hand I happen to have some Fever Tree tonic with angostra bark, and just to "pink" it up a bit, some Fever Tree pink grapefruit, it's almost like the folks at Fever Tree saw me coming! Mixing 1 to 1 with just a couple of splashes of the grapefruit. Now that's a really nice pink gin and tonic. Not sure what I can say for the Damrak, it really is TOO SWEET for my liking, however it can be mixed into a pretty nice concoction. The sugars warrant a fair bit of mix down which is something of a shame as the honeysuckle gets all but lost in the mix. I chilled mine with a few small cubes. Now I feel like going out and hoping in my Spitfire and shooting down some Messerschmidt's. Cheers all!
