Tasting Notes

Nose

Very strong citrus-forward — sweet juicy mandarin orange, subtle spice along the edges, the sun-dried ClemenGold peels providing intense aromatics, bright and inviting

Palate

Juniper with bold citrus and honeyed sweetness — honey and almond adding depth and smoothness, the ClemenGold mandarin dominating, cinnamon providing warmth, coriander adding spice, the sugar cane base providing clean sweetness

Finish

Citrus and honey fading — almond smoothness lingering, moderate juniper on the exhale, clean and bright, the mandarin sunshine persisting

Expert Review

7/10

Distilled from sugar cane at Hope Distillery in Cape Town with eight botanicals — the sun-dried peels of South African ClemenGold mandarins being the star. The ClemenGold is a prized South African mandarin variety with intense citrus aromatics. Maceration and vapour infusion during distillation. Powerful citrus-forward nose, bold juniper and honeyed almond on the palate. A gin that tastes of South African sunshine.
