Empress 1908 Cucumber Lemon Gin (75cl, 42.5%)

Empress 1908 Cucumber Lemon Gin is a small-batch copper-pot gin distilled by Victoria Distillers in Sidney, British Columbia. Eight botanicals go through the still, including juniper, lemon peel, orange peel, garden cucumber, jasmine, cardamom and star anise, with one kept undisclosed; fresh cucumber is infused post-distillation. Bright lemon citrus and fresh garden cucumber lead, with classic juniper structure behind them. Fragrant jasmine florals and delicate cardamom and star-anise spice round out a crisp, refreshing mouthfeel and a clean citrus-and-cucumber finish.
