Tasting Notes

Nose

Pine needles and juniper — elderflower and cloudy lemonade, floral notes, fresh and inviting

Palate

Soft creme-like texture — sweet lemon and floral chamomile, elderflower providing delicate sweetness, pine at the centre, juniper and black pepper spice appearing with a touch of liquorice, beautifully balanced

Finish

Long and dry — floral and fruit characters from the elderflower, juniper dryness, the Wemyss Castle terroir in the foraged flowers

Expert Review

7/10

Distilled at the Gin Cottage in Fife in a 350-litre copper pot still — elderflower foraged from the grounds of Wemyss Castle, the family's ancestral home since 1565. Soft and creme-like texture with sweet lemon, chamomile florals, and pine. Six botanicals in perfect balance.
