Many of us here at MoM Towers have wanted to visit California, but for one reason or another, we've not hopped on a plane just yet (I think it's mostly for fear of grizzly bears and not being able to get a proper cup of tea).
However, the wonderful folks at St. George Spirits have provided us the next best thing, the Terroir Gin! Now in a 70cl bottle, its botanical selection of Douglas Fir, Coastal sage and Californian bay laurel gives it a magical nose that makes you really feel like you're stood in a Californian forest (with no chance of a grizzly sneaking up on you as an added bonus!).
You're out in nature. In a forest to be precise, surrounded by Douglas firs and woodsy herbal aromas.
Fresh, with more fir, pine and bay laurel alongside the coastal sage. Well-structured and moreish.
Evocative and very long with citrus and lingering herbaceous notes.
A huge favourite of ours, it's just so evocative. Superb stuff.
Had the luck to visit the distillery in Alameda, CA over Chistmas. Andie gave us a tour of their beautiful distillery. This gin is one of the best I've had to date. It is so fragrant, and you can almost smell a forest in every sip. Wonderful with a good, not too sweet tonic.
