Tasting Notes

Nose

Bold savoury-led — balanced burnt orange and bitter notes, mature rounded citrus with earthy character from the cascarilla bark and myrrh

Palate

Smooth rounded London Dry — soft camphor balanced with sweet smoky wood notes, coriander and orange with spiced oak warmth, oily juniper and a whiff of black tea, the European bitters tradition adding aromatic complexity

Finish

Clean with lingering aromatic bitterness — the cascarilla bark creating a bitter-aperitif quality that works brilliantly in a Negroni, the Spice Route and European bitter tradition meeting perfectly

Expert Review

7/10

The Spice Route gin goes European — cascarilla bark (found in Continental bitter liqueurs) and fragrant myrrh joining the Oriental base. Bold, savoury, with smoky wood notes and a clean finish. Makes a magnificent spiced Negroni twist. The Ancient Spice Route meets European bitter tradition.
