The folks at the Southwestern Distillery in Cornwall have created this limited edition expression using 14 botanicals, with raspberry and rhubarb up in the mix. The original Tarquin's Gin is a favourite among many here at MoM Towers, so we're always excited when variations on the recipe come along...
Tart red berry, backed up by floral juniper, angelica and violet. A good helping of cinnamon brings a spicy kick to the mid-palate, offering balance to the rhubarb and raspberry.
Just tried this for the 1st time this lunchtime, now in my top 5 favourites!
A friend of mine told she would put this in her top 5 all time Gin's and I can see why. A number of people have said they don't go in for anything other than clear gins because the flavoured one's can have too much of a sugary taste. What I can say about this gin is that the sweetness is understated and the dominant flavour I first got was the Rhubarb followed by the Raspberry after. It felt a little strange drinking this on a Friday night in Spring and this taste's like a Summer afternoon classic.
Light, fresh will be nice on a hot day in the garden.
Delicious! I bought this bottle while on holiday from a shop in Padstow, Cornwall, so it has the extra value as a treasured souvenir. We came back to Aus to hot, hot weather and made a G&T with this gin. It was so lovely that my first drink barely hit the sides. So I needed another, then another. Wow - I am now buying another bottle on line. Very special gin!
Absolutely amazing the best gin I've ever tasted
