Bainbridge Legacy Organic Wheat Vodka 40%
Tasted: Oct 2014
Nose: Pungent. Opens with a light white wine vinegar note, some slightly herbal wheat and hints of creamy spirit. With time the aromas become a little whisky-like.
Palate: Intense but soft. Very darkly wheated with a touch of ‘off the still’ oiliness. Hints of earth and creamy vanilla come through.
Finish: Long and wheaty with an earthy after-taste.
Conclusion: Quite impressive with plenty of spirit character.

Soft White Wheat
Re-Tasted: Jan 2014
Nose: A pungent and oily nose displaying a distinct young barley spirit character. Quite deep with a touch of sweet rose petal.

Finish: Good length with quite a tart, cleansing, citrus finish.
Conclusion: An excellent spirit which displays a good degree of ‘real/ unfiltered’ character.
