Original Gin
36short.com.au Botanical bill reviewed & confirmed by distillery
Prohibition Liquor Co's Original Gin opens with wormwood — the banned spirit of the absinthe era — then takes a turn for the fresh with blood orange and ruby red grapefruit. Juniper, coriander and ginger hold the classic line while native lemon myrtle, green tea, vanilla and lavender soften the finish into a warm, peppery close. If you ever want to give your own gin a rebellious streak, wormwood is the botanical that turns heads.
