Tasting Notes
The initial aroma was that of reeds growing in the saltmarshes of a river estuary before an aromatic, fragrant, perfumed scent of tropical water lilies in full bloom developed. On the palate we found the sweetness of cotton candy as well as dusted lemon bonbons before a lip-tingling, spicy sourness emerged, almost out of nowhere, as if we were sucking on lemons. Following reduction, we got a concoction of distilled dry herbs, bark, flowers and roots found in a vermouth. To taste, we sampled a Mediterranean gin made using kumquat, lime, pink grapefruit, lemongrass and sweet oranges, served alongside some juniper berries and arbequina olives.
