Inspired by a love of both gin and whisky, Firkin cask-aged original is a London Dry style gin which is rested in Oak whisky casks. It is during this resting time that the colour of the gin changes to an alluring golden hue and the delicate notes of toffee, caramel, vanilla and sweet oak are infused into the spirit.
Botanicals: Juniper berries, Coriander seeds, Angelica root, Lemon peel, Orange peel, Cassia bark, Liquorice, Ground nutmeg, Cinnamon bark, Orris root.
Nose: Lots of caramel and toasted nut notes; a hint of peppery Juniper in the background.
Palate: Full and rounded; Vanilla and caramel spicy with Coriander and creamy Angelica developing gently.
Finish: Rich oak spice with notes of caramel, vanilla, a touch of fudge and a lingering, peppery finish.
How to serve: Neat over ice with a twist of orange peel or serve with Fentiman’s Rose Lemonade in a tall glass over ice.
