What is it?

This gin was created to support the Glenwyvis distillery.  It is made in Shetland with some of the botanicals coming from Ross-shire including Hawthorne berries, Juniper, coriander, angelica root, cinnamon stick, orange and lemon peel, almond powder and orris root giving it a smooth taste.

Tasting Notes

Nose:  Intense crushed juniper berries.  Crushed citrus – lime.  Hints of lavender.  Very fresh and clean.

Taste:  Soft and floral.  Light.  Delicate.  A touch of mint.  Palate cleansing.

Conclusion

Still fresh and cleansing with tonic.  A good aperitif gin.  An antidote to the over botanicalled gins which are almost a meal in themselves.
