Spit-Roasted Pineapple Gin (70cl, 46%)

Spit-Roasted Pineapple Gin is a flavoured gin from England, bottled by That Boutique-y Gin Company. Whole pineapples are roasted on a spit with Demerara sugar until caramelised, then combined with gin. The idea draws on pineapple gins popular in the 1920s. The sweetness of the fruit meets tart accents and caramel notes. On the nose it shows sweet, juicy pineapple with baked fruit, dark caramel and lime; the palate combines sweet and tart pineapple with lime, caramel, pancake hints and fine juniper; the finish shows fine juniper notes.
