bottle front

Part of the 24 Days of Gin advent calendar. Being that the bottles are all repackaged gins from other places, it's possible that some of these would be tasted a second time, outside of the calendar. The first few days of the calendar were tasted soon after ending the Geile Weine and Quarantini calendars, but after that was a long gap. As a rule for the first days, though, the gin was interesting for tasting more "gin-like" than the Quarantini calendars. So the theme and flavor seems to be a bit different.

Tasting notes:

April - Smelled like vanilla, tasted maybe of cinnamon, but something fairly hot, in the front, then kicked with juniper in the back.

Kinda weird, but I think I liked it more than not, mostly because I like the smell of vanilla extract. But the kick at the back is somewhat unpleasant, and gave me the alcohol shiver.

Jeanette - Geruch: Definitiv Weihnachten… Zimt, Nelke und Orange und Alkohol. Geschmack: sehr nach Zimt und Nelken, im Nachgeschmack Orangenschale und ein Hauch von Wacholder. Der Alkoholgeschmack ist nicht zu scharf aber in Kombination mit dem Zimt sehr nachhaltig…
