Finish

Long spicy woody finish with redcurrant and sloe berry fruitiness, juniper, pepper, and lingering berry sweetness

Expert Review

8.5/10

Monkey 47's sloe gin variant — distinctly drier and spicier than British equivalents, with the Black Forest's spruce woodiness and the base gin's extraordinary 47-botanical complexity.
