No.8 Botanical Gin
amblesidedistillers.com Reviewed by Gin School; distillery has not claimed entry
Ambleside Distillers' No.8 is a vibrant, citrus-forward gin that captures the best of South Australian-grown fruit. Organic orange lifts bright, floral top notes through the mid-palate, bolstered by fresh lime for a distinctly zesty character, while star anise and cassia bark add a touch of warmth to the back palate. Star anise lends a gentle liquorice-like spice — a hero botanical to make your own citrus gin sing.
