"This gin presents a somewhat reserved aroma, hinting at coriander and juniper. Upon tasting, it delivers a robust alcoholic warmth that lingers into the finish, complemented by the refreshing zest of lemon and the classic piney character of juniper. The flavors, though potent, take a little time to fully open up and reveal their complexity."
