Hermit Gin
hermitgin.com Reviewed by Gin School; distillery has not claimed entry
Carrying a hermit crab logo, this 'Dutch Coastal Gin' is distilled with up to eight botanicals including juniper, angelica, cardamom, cinnamon, coriander, nutmeg and citrus zest. In keeping with the coastal branding, filtered Dutch seawater also shapes its flavour.
Filtered seawater lends a faint saline edge that makes the citrus read fresher — an unusual touch to consider when you make your own gin.
