TBYGC – Strawberry & Balsamico Gin

46% || That Boutique-y Gin company

That Boutique-y Gin Company created an astoundingly decadent tipple with Strawberry & Balsamico Gin. A classic gin base acts as a canvas for the addition of fresh strawberries, strawberry and black pepper distillates and the very finest balsamic vinegar money can buy – Aceto di Balsamico tradizionale di Modena DOP, aged between 12 and 25 years in casks made from chestnut, cherry, oak, mulberry, ash and juniper (of course).

Nose: Dark red fruits – cherry, strawberry and cranberry – mixed with the rich and mysterious darkness of the balsamic, creating a rich chocolate-treacle note.
Taste: A delightful balance between the plump, juicy strawberries  and the complexity of the balsamic, which provides some woodiness and a touch of refined bitterness, but minimal acidity.
Finish: Cinder toffee and the lasting sweetness of strawberry. When it comes to flavours, you really do get two for the price of one with this gin!
