Incredible Mouthfeel
The texture at 58% is unlike any other gin — thick, oily, and luxurious. The angelica root and seed provide deep earthiness, the orris root adds powdery florals, and the juniper is commanding. Serious gin for serious enthusiasts.

Overwhelming Strength
At 58% ABV this is simply too powerful for neat drinking. The botanicals are there — commanding juniper, warm coriander, earthy angelica — but the alcohol heat masks them. Needs significant dilution. Impressive but challenging.
