Tasting Notes

Nose

Wonderfully aromatic — pronounced juniper oils, burnt orange peel, herbal aromas, peppery spice and cassia, hazy brick-red colour

Palate

Enlivening spicy herbal fruit — strong piney juniper, cracked black pepper and clove, lemon verbena, zesty marmalade and tannic Earl Grey tea

Finish

Long and spicy — scorched oak with lingering cracked pepper that persists through the summer fruit sweetness

Expert Review

7/10

Inspired by 18th-century London punches — Earl Grey tea, borage and lemon verbena infused into Sipsmith London Dry. Spicy, fruity, and the summer cup that rescued the category.
