Tasting Notes

Nose

Piney juniper — sharp citrus, exotic coriander, the locally foraged gorse adding a coconut-like floral note

Palate

Balanced botanical complexity — gorse and wood sorrel providing local character, garden mint freshness, sweet woodruff adding hay-like sweetness, classic gin botanicals maintaining structure, the Clyde shipbuilding pride in every sip

Finish

Elegant long-lasting — the foraged botanicals persisting, juniper dryness, the shipyard heritage in the close

Expert Review

7/10

Named for the famous Clyde shipbuilding heritage — locally foraged gorse, wood sorrel, garden mint, and sweet woodruff from the slopes overlooking Ardgowan Distillery. Handcrafted in a traditional Scottish copper pot still. Classic gin botanicals with Clyde-side terroir.
