Nordés Atlantic Galician Gin is a rather intriguing Spanish gin made with an Albariño-grape-based spirit, rather than your more commonly seen grain-based spirit, along with 11 botanicals, including 6 local ones from Galicia such as eucalyptus, lemon verbena and samphire, which gives the gin a complex maritime quality. The result is a bold flavour profile that would befit summer drinks and cocktails. The bottle is quite stylish too - very impressive stuff!
Lemongrass and lavender, shortly joined by a slight hint of waxy lemon peel.
Mint leaf, black tea and more floral notes - think iris, violet and hibiscus.
Juniper makes itself heard on the finish, but for just a moment.
Unusual but very moreish. Perferred it on the rocks, rather than with a tonic
Loved it every afternoon on the Camino in Spain, need it in Melbourne ?
This is the first gin that blew me away in how different it tastes. Like, hold everything, there’s a party going on. Suddenly my favorite gin. Love it.
I've found it to be a superb gin.
Neither my friend nor I thought much of this. Tastes like violet and musk. Does not taste like gin. Interesting but not pleasant for me. Might be interesting as an accent note in a cocktail.
