Joadja Distillery Highland Gin 500ML

Tasting Notes

Nose: Nose opens with an even aroma of juniper and piney styles. Pinecone, pepper and root notes. Given time, the piney top notes diminish slightly to yield base structure of citrus. The myrtle components are incorporated elegantly into the gin’s structure and do not oppose the additional elements. Subtle pepper tones are maintained throughout the nosing experience although the rooty initial top notes have eased. This is a beautiful trait as it creates “journey” and “evolution” of the gin’s aromatic profiles. After several minutes in the glass, lemon essence continues as does a subtle medicinal-woody style. The gin is very pleasant to nose. Mouth: Palate-wise, the nose translates to the tongue beautifully and the aroma profile is maintained on first sip. Here, the initial piney character is noticed and strikingly, the palate solvates with the gin to create a creamy texture. Successive sips highlight the gins body in greater detail. The creamy amalgamation – a mixing of saliva and essential oils – is perfectly situated to be a sipper-style gin!
