- Excerpt: There’s a spiciness on the finish that I credit to the ginger, though it lacks the sinus-clearing character that’s traditional with freshly ground ginger root. Ultimately it’s nice and cleansing, though; try it in a gimlet or a long drink.

Intro:
Ginvitational Day 18! Produced with an additional ingredient - limes - this gin from Four Pillars is bottled at an elevated proof. This is the 2019 release and it is bottled at 58.8% ABV. Let's get to it.
-
Nose:
Really bright and fragrant - tons of juniper, lemon peel, faint anise, sweet lime zest.
-
Taste:
Sweet and rich on the palate. Really supply mouth feel, coats the palate really nicely. First there is some malt and a roasted corn note that quickly gives way to pepper, sourdough bread, sweet cream and icing and some coriander. Really really nice.
-
Finish:
Long but searing and hot. The complexity of the palate is almost lost on how hot the finish is firing off, though there is a lovely balance of pepper and lemon curd.
-
Overall:
The nose and palate are delightful, but there is some lost momentum in the finish.
