Nose
Resinous with juniper and dry earthy notes — slight tropical sweetness swooping in towards the end of the breath
Palate
Full-bodied florality with menthol-like crispiness — naturally chilling with balanced citrus freshness, hint of spice, candied sweet potato and pineapple
Finish
Warming and pleasant — candied sweet potato and pineapple with lingering tropical sweetness
Expert Review
7/10The world's first naturally black gin — butterfly pea flower, sweet potato and saffron create a smoky slate colour that turns plum when tonic is added. Full-bodied florality with tropical notes.
