Nordes Atlantic Galician

DESCRIPTION:

Nordés Atlantic Galician Gin is a rather intriguing Spanish gin made with an Albariño-grape-based spirit, rather than your more commonly seen grain-based spirit, along with 12 botanicals including lemon peels, hibiscus, liquorice and eucalyptus. The result is a bold, floral flavour profile that would befit summer drinks and cocktails. The bottle is quite stylish too - very impressive stuff!

TASTING NOTES:

Nose: Lemongrass and lavender, shortly joined by a slight hint of waxy lemon peel.

Palate: Mint leaf, black tea and more floral notes - think iris, violet and hibiscus.

Finish: Juniper makes itself heard on the finish, but for just a moment.
