Tasting Notes

Nose

Resinous with juniper and dry earthy notes — slight tropical sweetness swooping in towards the end of the breath

Palate

Full-bodied florality with menthol-like crispiness — naturally chilling with balanced citrus freshness, hint of spice, candied sweet potato and pineapple

Finish

Warming and pleasant — candied sweet potato and pineapple with lingering tropical sweetness

Expert Review

7/10

The world's first naturally black gin — butterfly pea flower, sweet potato and saffron create a smoky slate colour that turns plum when tonic is added. Full-bodied florality with tropical notes.
