Tasting Notes

Nose

Strong orange peel with black pepper — turned earth and tea leaf, bright Sardinian citrus adding zesty Mediterranean character

Palate

Delightfully fresh and rounded — refreshing juniper and spice followed by a burst of Sardinian citrus, orange and grapefruit leading to a juicy floral mid-palate, gunpowder tea providing earthy backbone

Finish

Juicy and floral — the rare Sardinian citron creating a Mediterranean twist on the Irish Gunpowder base that is noticeably more citrus-forward than the original

Expert Review

7/10

Sardinian citron — one of the rarest citrus fruits in the world — added to the original Gunpowder tea gin base. More citrus-forward than the original, with Mediterranean brightness meeting Irish botanical complexity. From Drumshanbo's medieval copper pot.
