As a big fan of one of Collective Art's other gins (Plum & Blackthorn), I was excited to try more from their collection. Series #2 of their Artisinal Dry gin features elegantly surrealist black and white art on the bottle that an artsy person like me appreciates. The gin has a tropical fruit and botanical nose and while neat, a fairly intense burn. I called it a "flavour explosion," but it felt abrupt and unbalanced. This gin has a lot of strong flavours competing for the limelight (including lime - pun intended!) but didn't come across as cohesive. Fairly short, dry, peppery finish. Ice smooths it out a bit, but I genuinely think this gin would be best paired with soda. 6.5/10
