Ungava Canadian Premium Gin (75cl, 43.1%)

Ungava is a Canadian gin from Quebec's Ungava Peninsula, naturally yellow in colour. It is built on six hand-foraged Arctic botanicals, including cloudberry, crowberry, Labrador tea, wild rose hips and Nordic juniper. The botanicals are steeped for five weeks both before and after distillation. The first steep builds structure, while the second captures volatile aromatics and gives the golden colour, with no artificial colour added. It is bottled at 43.1% abv in a 75cl bottle. The nose is fresh citrus zest and pine with a hint of peppermint tea. On the palate it is lively and floral, with tart berries, fig, sour apple and moderate juniper. The finish is clean and lightly spiced, with sweet spearmint.
