Hoxton Gunpowder & Rosehip Pink Gin: A Uniquely Floral Gin Experience (50cl)
Looking for a pink gin that breaks the mould? Look no further than Hoxton Gunpowder & Rosehip Pink Gin. This London-distilled spirit offers a captivating exploration of floral and citrus notes, underpinned by the surprising intrigue of gunpowder tea.
A Bold Colour with a Delicate Aroma
Hoxton Pink Gin pours a beautiful rose gold, hinting at the floral wonders within. On the nose, the juniper – the defining characteristic of gin – takes a backseat, allowing a delightful interplay of rose and grapefruit to take centre stage. The rose isn't overpowering, but presents itself with a delicate sweetness. Hints of chamomile peek through, adding a touch of complexity. The gunpowder tea is subtle but intriguing, adding a touch of earthiness and a whisper of tannin.
A Taste Explosion: Floral, Citrusy, with a Touch of Spice
The first sip of Hoxton Pink Gin is a revelation. The juniper asserts itself gently, providing a foundation for the symphony of flavours that follow. The rose comes alive on the palate, offering a sweet floral character balanced by the zesty tang of grapefruit. The chamomile adds a touch of soothing warmth, while the gunpowder tea emerges more prominently, leaving a subtle tannic grip on the tongue. Liquorice adds a subtle depth in the background, while elderflower brings a touch of lightness. The overall impression is one of delightful complexity, where no single flavour dominates.
A Gin for All Palates
Hoxton Pink Gin's unique flavour profile makes it surprisingly versatile. Unlike many pink gins that lean towards sweetness, this one offers a delightful dryness that makes it appealing to a wider range of palates.
