Flavoured gins are popular for their magical mix of juniper-led base and extra notes of fruit or spice. Achieving balance is difficult but this wonderful expression from Haysmith’s shows how good flavoured gin can be. There is a magnificently well-judged aroma, which carries classic gin notes as well as sweet rhubarb and spicy ginger. The palate does not disappoint, with the full rich flavours of mouth-watering rhubarb, fiery ginger and chaste juniper. Delectably moist on the finish, with the glorious pungency of lip-tingling Jamaican ginger cake, heaped with a generous dollop of deliciously tart rhubarb. Superb.
