Da Mhile Distillery Tasting Notes

Posted: February 27, 2017 in Gin, Welsh Gin, White Spirits

Da Mhile Organic Gin 42%

Distilled in Wales using 18 botanicals, including juniper, red and white clover, coriander, gorse, rose petal, dandelion, clove, peppermint, fennel, star anise and angelica.

Tasted: Jan 2017

Pungent, almost starchy spirit aromas with earthy juniper, rose, coriander, clove, pepper and peppermint. A very ‘natural’ nose.

The palate is soft, full and starchy with a subtle juniper character and hints of bitter spice, earth, floral rose and pepper. Long and spicy finish with lingering rose petals and a distinct peppery bite.

Da Mhile Seaweed Gin 42%

The organic gin is infused for 3 weeks with seaweed

Tasted: Jan 2017

The nose is subtler and oilier than the organic. Again slightly starchy with hints of juniper, seaweed (black seaweed with pods), salt, clove and coriander.

The palate is full and oily with again a subtle juniper character and hints of seaweed, salt, coriander, bitter spice, pepper and peppermint. Lovely intensity with a slightly dry, bitter spice finish.
