Bought this Gin based on the tasting notes listed above. I don't get the mint, nor the peppercorns, but more a sweet vanilla. Its still a fantastic Gin, was just thrown off by the description. Nice and dry, with lots of orange. Smooth finish, with very little heat. A really good Gin, especially over ice.
I saw these guys at Junipalooza, tried their gin with a slice of dried orange, and just wow! Interesting to see what a Tonka bean was and how it effects the gin. Definitely worthy of its World Award!
A super tasty Gin. Strong Juniper and Lavender flavours.
First impressions are disappointing. The finish seems to have a slight taste of tequila to it. Not a flavour I would usually associate with gin. 1st tasted neat then with some tonic. I think it was actually marginally nicer neat. The tonic didn't seem to help. I drink a reasonable amount of premium gin and this sadly doesn't float my boat.
I must admit, I did set my expectations high, but it is infact very good. Another good example of a small batch gin distillery making very good Gin. Quite strong in juniper flavour, which I do like. Maybe a little strong for me to drink straight, but with tonic, I really did enjoy it.
