The second of my favourite infused gins. The rich spicy, sweet exotic taste is exciting and it withstand even 1:3 tonic dilution, but it is also neat sipper. This one is far from your usual gin experience. It's exotic and it's fun and I really enjoy it even if the infused sort is little bit of cheat. :-)

Great flavour with top notes of juniper, orange peel and saffron. Oily texture and spicy on the rock's. It can stand an 1/3 tonic mix without loosing it's character. Easy drinking and refreshing gin n tonic with the orange peel note prevailing. Used to snob infused gins but this one is really good
Another unusual gin flavor profile people will love or hate, depending on how you're drinking it. Sweet and lightly floral, with just a little spice or juniper. Medium viscosity and mouthfeel. Mix it in a simple Tom Collins to taste it. Beautiful color.
The tast of safron comes through the gin’s other. Flavors. The color maks martinis interesting. This grn is good drunk on the rocks.
