Great Cocktail Gin
Dorothy Parker excels in cocktails. The elderberry-hibiscus gives a natural colour and the cinnamon adds depth. The medium finish with gently warming florals and citrus lift makes it incredibly versatile at 44%.

Literary and Layered
Dorothy Parker gin is as witty as its namesake. The elderberry and hibiscus create a gorgeous berry-floral quality, while cinnamon adds warmth and citrus peel lifts everything. At 44% ABV it's bold and characterful.

Too Fruity for Purists
The elderberry and hibiscus are lovely but they push this firmly away from traditional gin territory. At 44% ABV the juniper tries to hold its own but the berry-floral character wins out. A nice spirit but barely a gin.

Berry Compote Magic
The elderberry and hibiscus create layers of dark berry flavour that are genuinely captivating. The cinnamon adds spice, the citrus peel adds brightness, and the juniper keeps it grounded. A stunning American gin.

Floral and Fruity
The hibiscus and elderberry florals dominate the nose beautifully, with dry cinnamon and pink grapefruit brightness. On the palate, the berry sweetness is well balanced. At 44% it's got proper presence.

New Western at Its Best
The elderberry-hibiscus combination is inspired. There's a rounded berry-compote sweetness on the palate, firm citrus acidity, and an emerging juniper backbone. The New Western style executed with real confidence at 44%.
