Distillery notes
"A crisp and robust ‘London Dry’ style gin. Batch distilled in a boutique 200L copper pot still after a 24 hour activated maceration in a sustainable neutral base spirit. Bottled at a bold 45% alcohol by volume.
Produced entirely by our own hands, on estate in the heart of the Marlborough wine region.
A juniper forward palate followed by a fresh grapefruit and hop zest balanced against a highly aromatic kawakawa and gorse nose.
Finishing long and clean with a slightly silky mouthfeel and lingering coriander seed note."

Coriander seed (Ludlow Farms, Hawke’s Bay, NZ)
