- Excerpt: This isn't for me. This drinks like an Italian spice garden more than a gin, and for me that is not super enticing. This worked really well in a Red Snapper, but I super super didn't enjoy it in much else, or neat.

- Excerpt: It’s inoffensive, some what smooth, and would probably make a better G&T than, say, Crystal Palace Gin. And that’s about all I can say about this gin – it’s neatly packaged and marketed to be attractive to hip, environmentally conscious drinkers who want something other than your basic well-gin.

- Excerpt: The body is a bit more traditional: Juniper comes up first (barely), with citrus peel notes… but there’s also gingerbread and honey on the finish.

Intro:
Ginvitational Day 36! A USDA organic labeled gin, this release from Prairie should be interesting to give a go. While they have a fairly interesting portfolio, this is their standard bottling. Let's give it a go.
-
Nose:
Really bright and herbacious. Sage, basil, pepper, cardamon, almost some saffron. This is wild on the nose, with tons of vanilla and juniper coming along for the ride.
-
Taste:
Thin on the palate, the sage and basil are powerful as they are on the nose. Faint mint, rosemary, thyme and pepper as well. Bizarre, but intriguing.
-
Finish:
Long finish, but even more herb forward than before.
-
Overall:
This isn't for me. This drinks like an Italian spice garden more than a gin, and for me that is not super enticing. This worked really well in a Red Snapper, but I super super didn't enjoy it in much else, or neat.
