★★★★ A gin that makes our mouths salivate I have always had a soft spot for Brockmans gin, which goes perfectly with a ginger beer. A judicious mix that propels us to the seventh heaven. It is a fruity and grassy whirlwind that propels us towards tasty worlds. There is a honeyed smoothness in this surprising product. Oh yeah!
About this bottle
Brockmans Gin was created by a group of four friends, all gin fans, who wanted to create their own unique style of gin. The end result is this gin made with 11 botanicals: juniper, blueberries, blackberries, cassia bark, licorice, lemon and orange peel, coriander, angelica, almonds, and orris. These botanicals are steeped in a neutral grain spirit before being distilled in a 100 year old copper pot still. Finally, it's bottled at 40% ABV.

Kind of oily, but very fruity and sweet, almost to the point of feeling like a small candy was dissolved in it. I expect this to be a great summer drink. For those who taste with colors, this tastes like a medium light violet.
New to gin and this is my first bottle I ever had. I got to say it was pretty decent! Not a fan of it straight, but mixed with juice, or tonic, damn tasty! May have opened up the world of gin to me.
Sweet berries and a little almond in nose and flavor, almondy aftertaste, almost no juniper, very smooth and sippable even neat, very fruity for a gin that doesn't have the fruit in the name.
Softer flavour compared to most gins I tried. You can get the blueberries straight to your nose and your mouth. I don't usually like rather flavoured gin. Still, one of the best I've tried
Very interesting flavors with very soft finish. Taste of very mellow floral accents. Could drink over ice for sure. Could see this mixed with Fresca soda on a sweltering day and oh my.
