A gin with a sense of place, being made with Isle of Wight rock samphire and Boadicea hops alongside juniper, coriander seeds, fresh lemon zest, grains of paradise, angelica, liquorice, orris and elderflower.
Earthy sweetness and some citrus zing with a touch of sea air and warming pepper.
This was a gift, could well be my new favourite ! Beautiful smooth and well rounded, a unique taste. As for the bottle itself! Stunning.
Horrible tasting
Tastes as good as the bottle looks
Not quite as I expected got a hint of coriander. Plenty better gins out there.
Isle of Wight’s first gin, eh? Encore! And keep doing it until you get it right. All I detected with this was a nondescript bouquet of chemical essence and a harsh flavour of pure alcohol that could only be tamed with the amount of ice a polar bear could live on. To me, a gin is genuinely bad if I'd rather be drinking Gordon's, and Roku certainly fits that label
