LoneWolf
Not even the craft beer superstars at BrewDog are safe from the bewitching charms of distillation. They've got stills and they're getting the in craft spirits game! LoneWolf Gin is made with their own malted barley spirit, and features a selection of botanicals including juniper, Thai lemongrass, Makrut lime leaf, angelica, coriander, cardamom, pink peppercorn, almond, lavender, fresh lemon and red grapefruit peels, mace and Scots pine needles.
A creamy mouthfeel carries hot spices and oily juniper, with a deftly balancing citrus influence. Dig a little deeper and the earthy-though-refreshing notes of lemongrass and lime leaf take control.
My tasting notes say "Ozone, spearmint; white marshmallows; warm, spicy, citrus; clean, full, crisp." and it got 5* (out of 5). So basically, I love this gin. I agree with the post that liked Lone Wolf's premix G&T; there's a roadside stop on the A12 where we always buy a can for whoever is not driving home. I was very sad when they changed the bottle - the old style label held on by the big laggy band was the most distinctive on the gin shelf and the new blue graphic wolf is just boring and like all the rest. Still, the gin is what counts.
From reading the other reviews, this gin is fantastic for those who enjoy a sweeter gin. It's smooth, fruity and lovely with lemonade. I'd say it's my favourite gin.
Very sweet.
Enough to put you off gin sickly sweet stick to what you know
A solid gin with citrus and pine notes in addition to a standard strong juniper.
