Tasting Notes

Nose

Intense fresh pine — seductive floral sweetness from rosehip, citrus, the Southern Alps water producing remarkable clarity

Palate

Dry and smooth — powerful juniper with menthol freshness, distinctive fragrant citrus zest, rosehip sweet floral notes, hints of vanilla and biscuit from the single malt base, white pepper warmth, creamy alpine water texture

Finish

Clean, herbal, subtly warming — the single malt base providing biscuity depth beneath the juniper, lingering and pure, the Cardrona Valley's four seasons captured

Expert Review

8/10

Forged by the four seasons of New Zealand's Cardrona Valley — botanicals vapour-distilled into a single malt spirit with pure Southern Alps water. Named one of the world's top 50 gins. Gold at the New York World Wine & Spirits Awards. Alpine purity at 47%.
