The spirit presents bright citric notes enhanced by its rest in first-fill Tennessee whiskey casks, offering a fresh and intense aromatic profile characteristic of London Dry style gin.
It displays sweetened citric botanicals with complexity imparted from six months of maturation in freshly tipped whisky casks, creating a balanced and nuanced flavour suited to sophisticated palates.
The finish is clean and spirit-forward, leaving behind the whisky cask influence that complements gin-based cocktails with sustained citric and botanical notes.
About A Glaswegian in Paradise: This is a London Dry style offering intensity and freshness to your favourite gin-based cocktails. To achieve a profile worthy of our members’ palates, we rest the gin in freshly tipped whisky casks to enhance the sweeter citric notes from the botanicals. Here, GN1.16 rested for 6 months in a 1st fill Tennessee whiskey barrel. A few gin-based cocktails that will make GN1.16 absolutely sing include The Martinez, French 75 and Pomegranate Gin Fizz.
