I like gin, but never been one for drinking straight...until now. Smooooth, oh so smooth. On the nose: juniper followed by anise. There's more, but a little out of reach. At 102 proof, you would thing it's going to bite you, but nope, coats the tongue with a masterful blend of herbs and spices. Again, primarily anise (and juniper) with much more.
