Manly Spiritis Australian Dry Gin 700ML
Produced from a wheat base, botanicals for the gin include Sea Lettuce, Pepper Leaf, Anise Myrtle, Finger Lime and Orange Peel. The odd botanical here is obviously the marine addition.Manly Spiritis Australian Dry Gin 700ML It was inspired by Elijah Holland, head chef at “Powder Keg”, a restaurant and gin bar in Sydney. He recommended it as a novel ‘North Beach coastal influence’ for the gin’s profile.
Tasting note: Clear with thick tears down the sides of the glass. Excellent aromatic lift includes aromas of pine needle, fresh citrus peel (lemon / lime) and delicate white pepper. Dry, cool-mint confectionary-like flavours (Lifesavers?), followed by muted lime juice and a chalky, lemony finish. Light piney aftertaste. An engaging citrus-led style that will shine in summer cocktails. 43% Alc./Vol.
