Named after the iconic sink found on the outer walls of Belfast's streets, this gin brings local Black Mountain heather together with classic gin botanicals in a slow, traditional distillation.
Expert's description
Jawbox Small Batch Belfast Cut Irish Classic Dry Gin is a Northern Irish gin from the Jawbox Spirits Company, bottled at 43%.
The gin is built on eleven botanicals, including juniper, lemon, cubeb pepper, angelica root, coriander seed, cassia bark, orris root, grains of paradise, cardamom, liquorice root and local Black Mountain heather.
Most botanicals are steeped and boiled, while three of them are vapor infused to preserve their delicate aroma.
The gin is distilled slowly in a traditional copper pot still, after the botanicals have steeped overnight in the warmed spirit, giving maximum influence from each ingredient.
