The Tasting Notes
Nose
A balanced presentation of clean fresh pine & resin coupled with light citrus zest.
Palate
Initially oily and mouth coating with juicy and rich orange zest and lemon pith then a bold emergence of black pepper and cardamom, tempered with tapered herbaceous smoothness.
Finish
Long, smooth and clean finish with effervescent spice.
Details
The distillery’s imposing backdrop of Arthur’s Seat provides the inspiration for the gin – ‘Height Of Arrows’ being the literal translation of ‘Àrd-Na-Said’, the Gaelic name for the extinct volcano. Standing at 251m, the Height of Arthur’s Seat was said to be the furthest distance an archer could fire an arrow – literally, aiming higher and breaking boundaries.
