Red Door Gin (75cl, 45%)

Red Door is a juniper-driven Highland dry gin distilled at Benromach Distillery in Speyside. It is made from wheat-based grain neutral spirit in a copper pot still named Peggy, where the botanicals sit in a basket and the rising vapour carries off their flavour without direct boiling. Three locally foraged Scottish botanicals set it apart: heather pearls, rowan berries and sea buckthorn. The nose is punchy with pine resin, citrus peel, heather and bitter orange. The palate shows Seville orange marmalade, sugared lemon peel, earthy angelica, honey and dark chocolate. The finish is long and dry, with licorice, honeysuckle, salt and black pepper.
