Rock Rose 2020 Summer Edition

Distilled using ingredients from their gardens and rockery to give a different, seasonal taste to Rock Rose Gin.

The challenge, set last year, was to make a citrus style gin using botanicals growing in the distillery garden and with no peels! Lots of discussions and research took place with Hanna, our gardener, and she planted, harvested and dried the botanicals that have gone into our Summer Edition.

The botanicals include lemon balm, clover, lemon thyme, pineapple sage, meadowsweet and elderflower!

Tasting Notes:
Nose: Citrus led with lots of fresh lemon.

Palate :Savoury, herbal notes start to come through from the lemon thyme.

Finish: Light herbal notes to finish with soft citrus elements coming through.
