Death's Door
A fantastic American gin for all your Martini needs. Death's Door Gin is made with a base spirit of wheat from Washington Island and malted barley from Wisconsin, as well as a small selection of botanicals (juniper, coriander and fennel), and is bottled at a robust 47% ABV. It really is amazing how so few botanicals can result in such a big, full-bodied flavour profile. Straight away, you'll find powerful but balanced notes of all three botanicals appear clear as day, carried on a clean, creamy spirit. Incredibly impressive.
Spicy nose with juniper berries to the fore, hints of coriander and menthol.
A mix of tangy coriander and juniper, with hints of soft, sweet spices, saffron and caraway.
Herbal, spiced finish. Quite dry.
If u like the taste of pernod, sambuka or Liquorice then u will like this. I dont, esp in my gin.!! I prefer smooth gins such as Cambridge, Martin Millers, Kings Hill etc. Not 4 me this one.
It is a bold move to limit the number of botanicals. And a cocksure brand name. Coriander on the nose, juniper passing like a high-speed train. And then all we have left is fennel, which lingers at sambuca levels, long after the spirit has warmed the... spirit. Personally I find the fennel drop overbearing. Its drinkable but almost liquorice sweet.
Love this delicate gin. Fantastic flavour and smooth easy finish
I love this gin. On my second bottle now. The first thing I get on the nose is fennel. Fever Tree Mediterranean tonic really complements this gin well.
My favourite gin. I'm a fan of flavoured gins but this straight no nonsense gin is the best. Super smooth with an subtle liquorice kick. Superb
