    Deep golden/bronze color.

The palate echoes the nose delivering a gorgeous fruit and honey core with waves of nutmeg, allspice, and brown sugar with pepper and clove accents on the finish. Medium-bodied with perfect balance and a bright dose of acidity that keeps it vibrant and joyful to sip. $15.99 – 4.5 Stars

  • Crop Organic Spiced Pumpkin Flavored Vodka

  • 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
