Tasting Notes

Nose

Soft complexity — menthol, pine, anise, cloves, dried citrus peel, finishing with floral rose petals and Moscatel grape sweetness

Palate

Light-bodied and silky — initial citrus blast transitioning to creamy grape and strawberry sweetness, then drying with anise and pepper spice, Mediterranean herbs throughout

Finish

Well balanced and dry — spicy conclusion with lingering anise, rose petal florals, and a grape-skin softness

Expert Review

7/10

A Spanish gin distilled only twelve times a year — once per full moon — in a traditional copper alembic. Twenty-one Mediterranean botanicals including Moscatel grape, samphire, and rock tea, quadruple-distilled with only the heart of each run kept.
