Nose - juniper, black pepper, lemon and lime zest, vanilla, bitter anise, celery, moderate ethanol burn. Taste - orange zest, juniper, ginger, black pepper, vanilla, floral notes, caramel, lemon, lime, sweet licorice, subtle oak, moderate alcohol bite, finishing fast with juniper, cloying creamy vanilla and caramel, and citrus flavors. I don’t like this very much. On the nose, I don’t think I could distinguish it from Beefeater and Tanqueray. It has a juniper forward palate, but there’s a cloying caramel vanilla note that is really off putting. I imagine this would disappear in a cocktail, but it’s a bit sickening when you taste it neat. Overall, this is probably the worst gin I’ve tasted as part of my series this week, but not too far behind Bombay Sapphire for me.
