Gin description
Chiswick Gin is a small, collaborative batch of gin made by Gin Foundry and Sipsmith. It's a modern take on London made, London Dry Gin. Locally grown rosemary and rhubarb, both quintessential English summer garden botanicals, were foraged nearby and added to Sipsmith London Dry Gin‘s regular botanical mix. On the nose, the rhubarb brings a light and airy sweetness. Cinnamon and juniper conspire to bring that familiar Sipsmith spiciness through in the background. To taste, the rosemary adds a subtle heft to the juniper, bringing an aromatic richness to proceedings. The rhubarb brings a deep, red-fruit flavour and adds both depth and a slight sweetness to the mouthfeel. It also dominates at the end – a fresh fruit flavour coats the mouth. Chiswick gin will only be made available to those who visit the distillery, go to Foxlow or are at Junipalooza 2016.
