Mary Rose Gin from the HMS Spirits Company is a London Dry Gin that prominently features floral wafts of rosemary and punchy grapefruit among its botanical selection. Stands up well to all manner of classic mixers.
A rush of juniper and floral rosemary, with a hint of heather in there too, plus zesty citrus oils.
Heady waves of rosemary and a good crackle of black pepper. Lemon and orange once again bringing welcome vibrancy.
Lasting oily juniper warmth on the finish.
Love it - very vibrant different and dangerously addictive !!!
Can’t stop drinking this stuff! Love the rosemary flavour! I never thought I’d be drinking gin with just a cube of ice but after a reccomendadtion of giving this gin a go neet I just can turn back!
A stunning Gin can't wait for the next blend which I hear is imminent
There are too many of these new spirits being launched which are just an example of unrefined production techniques with overpowering citrus flavours (and rosemary in this case) and not Juniper! Added to that, while a higher oil content is typically a good thing, the producer has needlessly gone too far, certainly too far with rosemary and citrus for it to be a London dry. Anyone can produce a Gin with overpowering flavours (probably to mask the quality) but it takes skill to get a subtle balance, which this sadly fails at miserably.
Loving this gin! Just came across it the other day at a local gin bar. Was trying a few of the many available and for me this one did the trick. So smooth to drink compared to some others, I know this as the barman had me try them all neat first. Glad I’ve found it online now and will be getting a bottle in the very near future.
