Dornoch Experimental Batch Gin No.10
It's Batch #10 of the Dornoch Experimental Batches - each batch is made with organic floor malted Odyssey barley at the small Scottish distillery (not a dribble of bought-in neutral grain spirit in sight), but each batch is also slightly different. Batch #10 was made with one of Dornoch's very first distillations and had a rather low botanical content. They then filled that spirit into 50 litre ex-rye casks and matured it for 8 weeks.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Piney juniper, waxy peels and fresh malt. Hints of pink lemonade and a touch of charred, caramel-y oak.
Palate
The maltiness of the spirit really comes through well here. Slight sweetness of vanilla, with even a hint of vegetal vanilla pod too.
Finish
Soft, rounded sweetness with a hint of earthy rye.
