JJ Whitley Nettle Gin 70cl 7312040017683

JJ Whitley Nettle Gin 70cl 7312040017683A rediscovered classic inspired by British gardens and hedgerows. This is certainly an unusual gin with delicate flavours. Best with a tonic that isn't overpowering. It has juniper to start on the nose then a strong herbaceous punch from the nettles. Notes of citrus and coriander are bound by a delicate sweetness.
