An exotic, world spanning botanical basket makes Tarquin's Gin. This includes orris root from Morocco, green cardamom seeds from Guatemala, cinnamon from Madagascar, and crucially some locally foraged violets from the southwestern coast!
Southwestern Distillery produce small batches of their artisan Tarquin's Gin using their flame-fired copper pot still called Tamara, goddess of the Tamar. It's then bottled by hand and sent off into the world, to spread the news that Cornwall is producing some fabulous gin.
Lively with juniper, cardamom and a sweet breeze of orange blossom.
Incredibly fresh, with energetic but reserved green pine notes.
Crisp and dry, with a tasty spice that lasts.
Excellent Cornish gin. Tamara would be proud.
A very smooth and flavourful gin.
le.poisson An excellent gin which is good with tonic but to really enjoy add just a little ice and water - heaven
It's ok, but that's all and certainly not up where the price would suggest. A shame really, it seemed to have so much to offer and is local to me.
I agree with some of the other reviewers. This is a perfectly good gin but the only outstanding attribute is the bottle. Beefeater will do the job as well for far less buck!
omg divine what else is there to say!!!!
