Robert not too long ago reviewed 6 O’Clock Gin’s London Dry expression — and its canned G&T — however as we speak we’re trying on the Bristol-based operation’s “export energy” expression, dubbed Brunel.

The gin isn’t only a higher-strength model of the London Dry, it’s additionally bought six added botanicals on prime of these within the London Dry: inexperienced cardamom, nutmeg, cumin, cassia bark, cubeb pepper, and lemon. And sure, it’s bottled at the next proof.

Let’s give it a attempt.

The nostril of the gin is reasonably natural and on the savory aspect, its earthier angelica and orris notes taking heart stage. There’s ample juniper right here, however lower than you’d assume, with a light-weight pepper observe that retains you in your toes. On the palate, there’s a pleasant nutmeg kick up entrance that folds some mild sweetness into the proceedings at simply the fitting second, with cinnamon and orange peel melding properly thereafter. Once more the juniper parts are restrained however current, these piney, natural parts folded into a posh however cohesive complete. Fragrant on the end, it’s advanced and brilliant and by no means a disappointment, bringing in a contact of pink berry that gives a brand new viewpoint that solely enhances its sense of stability. Natural, fruity, bittersweet, spicy — it is a versatile gin that has all of it.

100 proof.
