West Yorkshire Spiced Gin
ABV (% Vol.) 42.0
Bottle Size: 70 cL
Drawing inspiration from the diverse city of Bradford, the hometown of our distiller, this spiced, aromatic gin contains a fine blend of earthy flavours which include cardamom, turmeric, cumin, cubeb and grains of paradise. Carefully sweetened with liquorice (Pontefract Cakes) and cassia bark, this precisely weighed botanical mix, combined with the lovingly accurate way in which we distil our craft gins, makes for a very smooth, flavour-packed ‘spiced’ gin. This really does evoke a curry in a glass.
Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
A clear spirit with an intriguing heavy spice on the nose. The cardamom-rich aroma gives way to the warmth of the coriander and cubeb pepper on the palate, followed by the rich spice of the turmeric and cumin creating a distinctive savoury-spiced gin of depth and character with a pleasant cardamom finish.
