Shoogle Scottish Dry Gin

Shoogle Scottish Dry Gin has a citrus forward flavour profile with a pepper spice backdrop that is as good to drink neat as it is with tonic water or in your favourite cocktail. Their gin is made in batches of 200 bottles at a time using a base of eleven botanicals, including juniper, coriander seed, angelica root, orange and cardamom, blended with more peculiar ingredients such as kumquat, baobab, tonka bean and pink peppercorn all blended together to give a rounded, lasting taste profile.

Tasting notes:
Shoogle Gin presents itself as a sweet citrus forward gin with a pepper spice backdrop. The juniper and kumquat appear on the nose at first, luring you in with a likeness of tangerine before giving way to traces of cinnamon and spicy pink peppercorn. On the pallete, the initial citrus sweetness melts into the piney juniper before the warming flavours of cassia, tonka bean and cardamom level things out a little, in preparation for the more earthy notes of angelica root and the final pepper spice hit from the pink peppercorn.
