Nose: Opening the cork gives a satisfying deep, echoey pop. It certainly whets the appetite. As you nose the gin, it’s juniper-forward, fresh and sweet. Citrus notes of the bitter orange and coriander aren’t far away, while always in the background is the sugar kelp, adding a rich maritime scent, really helping to transport you to the Hebridean isle.
It’s very much a traditional gin to the nose, but with a contemporary twist.
Palate: citrus notes are the first to appear before fading to bring juniper from the background. There’s a sweetness here from the liquorice before the cassia bark and cubeb provide a peppery finish. The sugar kelp makes itself known with a sweet saltiness.
Overall, it’s a really well-balanced, refreshing and smooth gin. There’s nothing too overpowering and certainly enjoyable as a sipping gin.
