"I can’t think of a single application where this eminently stunning expression won’t work." - Andrew Kitz, B-21 Spirits Buyer
Handcrafted, artisanal gin is having its moment in the spotlight, and some of the finest iterations are coming out of Scotland. We've featured the excellent, boutique single malts from the eponymously named Isle of Raasay Distillery on the far-flung island of the Hebrides on a few occasions, and today we're introducing you to their equally superb craft gin.
Made from a double-distilled base of Raasay's signature malt and juniper harvested from the island's wild, rugged interior, it's steeped with ten different botanicals of the highest quality, including sweet orange peel, lemon peel, coriander, orris root, and angelica root, while the base spirit itself carries a lovely black currant undertone that sets the stage for the "simply captivating" palate and "graceful and stately" aromatic profile. With a wild combination of luxurious, viscous texture and ethereal balance, it shows its artisanal pedigree in spades, and will make a perfect base for any and all of your favorite gin cocktails, or for sipping with a few rocks and a twist on a hot day. Best of all, you can add it to your bar for the sharpest price in the country. |
