A long-standing favourite tipple, Plymouth Gin was one of the few gins to have a geographic indication, obviously pertaining to its eponymous city. However, Plymouth Gin lost this indication in 2015, although it is still of course produced in the city. This is the original gin from the distillery, crafted from seven botanicals in a pot still with a rather short neck, and is blended with Dartmoor water. It is then bottled into the classic ‘shaving bottle’, with its distinctive green glass.
Full and peppery with juniper berry, lemon oil and dried herbs. A little fennel.
Peppery and floral palate entry with hints of soft fruits, tangy juniper oil, pepper and coriander seed.
Long, spicy finish with berry fruits.
A first class gin set apart from the rest. Good crisp taste, very delicious served in a highball glass with a high quality tonic and lime. My favourite standard strength gin.
good quality gin
An absolute classic gin that will always be up there for many a great cocktail mixer...
This gin is so well balanced and smooth. By far my favourite all round gin for simple G&T or any limey cocktail.
It has very little flavor. I would not buy again
