Nose
Dark chocolate and orange chocolate — dark roasted espresso bean, pine-accented juniper, rich and complex for a £15 gin
Palate
Surprisingly traditional gin-like — juniper, white grapefruit pith, bitter orange, then gentle bitterness of dark roasted coffee, vanilla and cream with hints of bitter chocolate at the edges, the cocoa nibs adding depth not sweetness
Finish
Dark roast coffee — bitter chocolate lingering, juniper persisting, the mocha character providing a long, contemplative close
Expert Review
7/10A world-first botanical gin — cocoa nibs and dark roasted coffee distilled (not flavoured) with Bulgarian juniper, grapefruit, and vanilla. Full-bodied chocolate entwined with espresso and juniper. The botanicals are macerated overnight then distilled, not just infused.
