To create their explosive Navy-strength bottling, the Ester team uses an extra roar of juniper, finger lime and lemon myrtle interlaced into the feisty punch of the 57% abv. Florals and spice weave over a foundation of citrus and pine forest; it’s viscous and intense with a thunderous undercurrent of spice and citrus, all layered with complex savoury notes. The beauty of the recipe means that, somehow, nothing stands out save for the remarkable layered texture, and symphony of balanced flavours. It’s been dubbed a Gin geek’s Gin, yet there is nothing elitist about it: just a beautifully crafted and quintessential cocktail gin that is built for the classics. Botanicals; Juniper, cardamom, coriander, orris, angelica, liquorice, clove, cassia, finger lime, macadamia, lemon myrtle, pepper berry.
