Nose: Garden herbs - fennel and dill - lead the nose, and there’s a suggestion of mint. Touches of cardamon and pepper follow slowly, and then there’s a wave of coastal saltiness.
Palate: Pocket-tin spearmints burst to life, complemented by dashes of lemon juice and a spray of sea salt. The seaweed is obvious without overpowering the gin’s savoury juniper and peppery spice notes. Fragrant eucalyptus gives a slightly medicinal quality to round off a refined palate.
Finish: Incredibly refreshing, like how you would imagine a mermaid’s toothpaste to be. It’s so, very, smooth, with a lot going on.
Overall: Beautifully composed, managing to be sophisticated, fun and intriguing all at once.
