Rammstein Blueberry Gin Schwarz (70cl, 40%)

Rammstein Blueberry Gin Schwarz is a flavoured gin from the Dutch distillery Onder de Boompjes in Schiedam. Juniper, coriander seed, angelica root, lemongrass and cardamom form the base, with elderberries plus raspberry and blueberry aromas shaping its fruity character. The dark gin changes colour when mixed, giving gin and tonic or cocktails a violet tint. A soft or fruity tonic suits its berry spice. On the nose, blueberries and raspberries lead, with a hint of lemon and juniper in the background. The palate is soft and full, with sweet berries, cardamom and juniper leading to a spicy finish where fruit recedes.
