DISTILLERY NOTES

A velvety smooth infusion of our Botanical Beach Gin and cacao husks from Victoria’s Sirene Chocolate, resulting in a rich dark chocolate aroma with a bright juniper and citrus finish. Try it in an 21st Century or in a G&T with an orange garnish.

BC SPIRITS NOTES

What an incredibly unique and creative release from Spinnaker's Brewpub. I have never in my entire career tasted a chocolate gin, I have never thought of making one before but this is fun and surprising. On the nose, you get that classic bright, high notes of the Breakwater Gin with just hints of chocolate then it follows on the palate with wide chocolatey profile. Definitely do this in a 20th Century.

Alcohol - 43% / 86 proof

Color - Light cocoa butter brown

Nose - Bright, high notes of the Botanical Beach Gin with light hints of cocoa husks

Taste - The gin pops on the palate with bright juniper and citrus and then leans into the broad chocolate tones that the cocoa husks bring

Finish - Balanced gin and chocolate notes, neither takes from the other.

Best Enjoyed - 20th Century Cocktail all the way
