The Warner Edwards distillers in Northamptonshire have brought us another flavour of excellent gin - they've been rather prolific since they started in 2012, haven't they? This time, they've gone all regal and created Victoria's Rhubarb Gin, which uses a variety of rhubarb originally grown in Queen Victoria's garden, hence the name, as well as their Harrington Dry Gin. They also add just enough sugar to balance out the acidity from the rhubarb, producing a spirit with plenty of sweetness and some subtle, enjoyably sour notes emanate from the rhubarb.
Soft lemon, orris and nutmeg, all leading towards the full-bodied notes of fresh rhubarb.
Tangy rhubarb once again is the star of the show, supported by a spicy blend of juniper, black pepper and cardamom.
Vanilla pod and cooked rhubarb sweetness.
My absolute new favorite. I tried it in Edinburgh and brought some home. Hopefully I’ll be able to get it in the USA.
Absolutely delightful straight from the bottle with a slice of orange. SOOOOO disappointed it wasn't available duty free to bring back to Canada. Fingers crossed that it will appear!!!
A beautiful sipping gin instead of dessert! Gorgeous taste of sweet rhubarb sits in the mouth for some time. Excellent served with ice, a slice of lemon and a few pieces of fresh strawberries
Sublimely delicious. A magical potion. Is it available in USA?
Love it!
