DISTILLERY NOTES

This aromatic artisinal gin is a small batch distilled in the London Dry style exclusively for KPMG using locally sourced grains and wild craft botanicals. The result is enchantingly fruity with a gentle sweetness and delicate bitter finish.

Evoking a passion for the ocean, a unique infusion of kelp sustainably harvested off the coast of Haida Gwaii lends a subtle sea note, while the natural butterfly pea flower achieves the vibrant ocean blue.

BC SPIRITS NOTES

This was a sneaky one from Yaletown Distilling, the blue from the butterfly pea flower gives you the underestimation of it being soft but this is a big, ballsy, classic style London Dry Gin that is bold juniper, woody coastal forest and a long earthy finish with hint of salinity from the kelp.

Alcohol - 42% / 84 proof

Color - Bright blue

Nose - Bold and aromatic of woody, piney juniper

Taste - Bold, floral juniper with balanced citrus and a solid, strong botanical backbone with hints of salinity from the kelp
