The nose is pretty bland but a tad savory with perhaps a tad of sulfur and smoke. The palate has a fair amount of sulfur too, but at least it's smooth with a harshness that goes well with the slow-burn spiciness. There are earthy notes and hints of floral fruity notes, as well as some sweetness and pine. It's fairly muddled and the flavors aren't that great. It's dull and ill-executed. What a disappointment. This reminds me of Prarie Organic Gin. There's a variety of flavors, but they're difficult to pick out from the sulfur. This is definitely not as good as Beefeater or Tanqueray. Prarie is more minty and crisp with a pronounced spiciness and distinct flavors. This is comparable in quality, but it's more muddled. I'm sure not enjoying this. It's hard to say whether this or Prarie is better, is I'll give them the same rating.
