On the nose is pine (juniper), light citrus with notes of alcohol. This is replicated on the palate with a stronger alcohol burn. Whilst not a smooth sipping Gin, this is a very low price one (probably the cheapest Gin available in the USA) making it popular with people on restricted budgets e.g. students. It is best used as a spirit to mix in long drinks and punches and may be found in a bartenders’ “well”. |
