Blackwater No. 5 Gin is made in West Waterford, Ireland, by the Blackwater Distillery (which was set up by Peter Mulryan in 2015). Using their beautiful 300-litre still, charmingly named Sally, the Blackwater Distillery makes their No.5 Gin using a selection of 12 botanicals, including juniper, nutmeg, liquorice, coriander and cinnamon. You get plenty of the cinnamon and citrus coming through on the nose and palate, with touches of spice bringing a comforting warmth to the exciting flavour profile.

Disappointing. Hot in the mouth, no real flavor. Tried sipping, waiting, but it had no pizzazz. Made the mistake of putting it in a gin tonic, after reading a review that it opens up well in that scenario, and I could no longer taste it at all. Maybe next time #5.
Love this No.5, its a little 50cl ditty that swells in after notes. Definitely one for the front of the cabinet.
