Farallon Blackfruit Gin (75cl)

Farallon Blackfruit Gin is a contemporary gin from Coastal Spirits of San Carlos, California. It is built around 14 botanicals, led by black plum and inspired by European tradition, with cardamom, coriander, lavender and bilberry in support. The botanicals are vapor-infused and the spirit rests for six weeks before bottling. It is a botanical-led, contemporary-style gin rather than a juniper-dominant London Dry. The aroma is cardamom-forward, with coriander, dusty lavender and bilberry behind it; cardamom leads the palate, giving way to herbaceous juniper mid-palate, with pine facets, distilled sloes, unsweet berries and lemon rind on the long, warm finish.
