Scapegrace Gold Gin (70cl, 57%)

Scapegrace Gold is a New Zealand London dry gin bottled at 57% ABV. It combines a pronounced juniper base with mandarin, lemon and floral accents. The higher strength gives an intense profile and suits aromatic mixes. Distillation takes place in small batches in a historic still, using water from the Southern Alps and 13 botanicals. Coriander, cassia and orris root complement the fruit and juniper notes, and the bottling is not chill-filtered. The botanicals listed are angelica, cardamom, coriander, mandarin, nutmeg, clove, orange, liquorice, orris root, juniper, cinnamon cassia and lemon. It comes in a 700ml bottle.
