Dasher + Fisher Mountain Gin (500ml)
Burgess' "Mountain gin" is his Tassie riff on the classic London Dry. This full bodied juniper-bomb gives a starring role to native pepper berries harvested from the foothills of the Blue Tier, as well as herbs found on the way to Cradle Mountain. It's a fragrant shot of alpine freshness, with deep, lingering zingy coriander and earthy liquorice latching expertly onto the musky, piney juniper, and topped off by the zing of the mountain pepper. Our tasting from a small sample found a ripe, juniper-forward bouquet, menthol-fresh with aromas of crushed eucalyptus, pine needle, pepper and sea spray following through to a concentrated, medium dry burst of fresh juniper, black pepper, liquorice root and a coriander accented finish. The aftertaste is pleasingly spicy, balanced and long. A versatile gin to be enjoyed on its own or in classic cocktails. 43.5% Alc./Vol.
