Farmer's Small Batch Organic Gin - 750ml

On the nose, the elderflower opens with a bright, green-framed sweetness that feels almost floral but never perfumed, a delicate balance that lets the botanical backbone peek through. It occupies the foreground with a crisp, sunny aroma, while a quieter juniper note tethers it with resinous complexities and a forest-fresh coolness. As the scent settles, the initial brightness shifts to reveal layers underneath: a zesty lemongrass lift that adds lemony brightness without tipping into sour, and a clean, aromatic coriander that lends subtle citrus-calling spice. The overall bouquet remains elegant and precise, as if each element has been carefully coaxed into its own space rather than crowded together.

On the palate, the interplay broadens. The elderflower’s gentle sweetness carries through, but it softens into something more nuanced as the other botanicals come forward. The juniper returns with a peppery, balsamic edge, providing structure and a crisp, evergreen sweep that keeps the profile from drifting into sweetness. Lemongrass threads through with a minty, citrus-tinged brightness, brightening the mouth without clashing with the aromatic complexity. Coriander adds a faint, lively warmth, a hint of citrusy seeds that dances alongside the brighter notes. A crisp celery note anchors the finish, giving a vegetal crunch that refreshes the palate. Toward the end, a subtle sweet licorice character appears, rounding the ensemble with a gentle, lingering sweetness that lingers pleasantly on the tongue, completing a balanced, refreshing profile.
