Found this in Total Wine, Spokane. Full juniper and light lavender on the nose, some citrus. Juniper, pine, and deep earthy spices like coriander and cardamom on the palate. Soft and smooth and coating in the mouth. Finishes long with a little pepper and mint and eucalyptus.
I was skeptical of this Washington state gin until I saw the rave review it received from TheGinIsIn.com website, so I bought it. Glad I did-- it deserves the rave. Classic London Dry profile, full body and clean and worthy of sipping straight. My favorites are Plymouth, Sipsmith, Fords, and the St. Georges Terroir--this easily hangs with that crowd.
Temple Distilling, Lynnwood, WA, 45% ABV. Gold Medal 2016 San Fransisco World Spirits Competition. Was $24 ($29 total with WA state's 20%+ tax on liquor). Well worth it. They also make a navy strength version that I will try next time I can. Until then, Cheers!
