Spirits Reviews

    Aviation American Gin

  • Brilliant, crystal clear. The aromatics are generous and complex with citrus in the lead followed closely by juniper and pine cone with supporting notes of floral lavender, orange peel, and caraway. The palate echoes the nose delivering a lush and silky spirit core filled with juniper and citrus with long, lingering botanical accents that become mildly earthy on the finish. Medium-bodied with a silky rich core that never feels heavy rather offering bright acidity and perfect balance. $30 – 4.5 Stars

  • New Holland Knickerbocker Gin

  • Brilliant, crystal clear. The aromatics are quite assertive while being very soothing and pleasing with vibrant juniper in the lead supported by citrus, coriander, pine, and a bright mélange of crushed spices. The palate echoes the nose delivering a bold, dry juniper-driven core with generous citrus zest and ginger accents with brown spices offered in good measure. Full-bodied with a dense but fine balance of aromatic spices that is framed by vibrant acidity with just enough sweetness to provide body and a rich mouthfeel. $24.99 – 4.5 Stars

  • New Holland Blue Haven Blueberry Flavored Gin

  • Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is wonderfully dense with sweet, blueberry jam with juniper is the second slot with accents of orris root and cardamon. The palate is in full agreement with the nose while being drier than expected delivering a blueberry-driven core with juniper and citrus in support creating a dry finish. Medium to full-bodied with rich and vibrant blueberry in the lead supported by citrus notes that give it an overall dry impression. $29.99 – 4.5 Stars

    Brilliant, crystal clear. The aromatics are wonderfully fresh presented on a backdrop of an ultra clean and expansive spirit offering scents of red and black berries with mint, anise, and hints of evergreen brush. The palate echoes the nose delivering a silky, grain spirit core with waves of herbs, pine, heather, and soft (almost sweet) mineral notes. Medium to full-bodied with a beautifully lush core and ideal balance thanks to a vibrant dose of acidity and clever botanical blend. $41.99 – 5 Stars

  • Gin Lane 1751 Victoria Pink Gin

  • Brilliant, pink salmon color. The nose is quite vibrant offering scents of fresh juniper with a bright floral backdrop and supporting notes of bitter herbs and citrus. The palate confirms the nose while being fuller and richer than expected delivering a fresh floral and juniper core with flanking notes of citrus zest and bitter herbs enveloped in a silky spirit. Medium-bodied with a round, silky core and a bright dose of acidity offering perfect balance. $24.99 – 4.5 Stars

  • Rutte Celery Gin

  • See the Full BevX Featured Review & Beverage of the Week

    Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is rather delicate allowing the sweet scents of the pot still distillate to rise from the glass. The celery is certainly evident and it seems to accentuate the fruity notes of the juniper and the sweetness of the angelica with hints of spring flowers and citrus. The palate echoes the nose delivering soft, sweet herbal notes with vibrant citrus that finish with a touch of mint and cardamon. Medium-bodied with ideal balance and a beautiful complexity. The botanicals are pronounced while delicate with great length. $37.99 – 4.5 Stars

  • Rutte Dry Gin

  • Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is quite expressive being led by citrus with fresh, green herbs and juniper not far behind. Exotic brown spices emerge after several nosings providing a warming sense. The palate echoes the nose while being more vibrant and spicy with the secondary brown spices taking the lead now being followed by citrus and juniper with hints of sandalwood and black pepper. Medium to full-bodied with an assertive and complex melange of botanicals that present themselves one after another from the front palate to the very, very long finish. $37.99 – 5 Stars

  • Rutte Old Simon Genever

  • See the Full BevX Featured Review & Beverage of the Week

    Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is very unctuous and malty with scents of grains in the lead supported by hints of roasted nuts and spices (coriander and subtle caraway notes) with soft citrus and juniper accents. The palate echoes the nose delivering a lush and silky texture that gives life to the toasted spice core with the caraway really accentuated. Full-bodied with a rich, nearly chewy, malty, and grain core supported by bright juniper, spice, and notes of hazelnut. $37.99 – 5 Stars

  • Mahón Gin

  • Brilliant, crystal clear. The aromatics are quite beautiful as the grape spirit is very evident acting as the perfect platform for the vibrant juniper and citrus notes with hints of coriander, bark botanicals, and lavender. The palate echoes the nose delivering a silky but sprite grape spirit core with a lovely marriage if bright juniper and lemon with earthy spices and soft wildflower accents. Medium to full-bodied with perfect balance and great length. $47.99 – 4.5 Stars

  • Fords London Dry Gin

  • See the Full BevX Featured Review & Beverage of the Week

    Brilliant, crystal clear. The juniper steps up and takes center stage followed by a toasted coriander note supported by the angelica with citrus, floral jasmine, and lavender. The palate is in full accord with the nose delivering a lush and oily center palate with juniper and citrus in the lead creating a slightly sweet core that becomes quite dry on the finish. Medium-bodied with ideal balance and a texture that far surpasses most in its class. $25 – 5 Stars
