Botanicals 8: juniper, angelica, coriander, cassia bark, orris root, Sicilian lemon, Seville orange, star anise. PLUS there is an aromatic bitter added to the gin after distillation.
The aroma has a lot of orange in it and of course juniper and hints of angelica.
The gin opens on the palate with definite peppery notes, spice and of course quite a bit of juniper. Far in the background there are some faint whiffs of cinnamon and an even fainter trace of licorice. There isn’t much layering or complexity here, but somehow it seems to work.
