Zymurgorium Marmalade Gin is created in collaboration with the distillery's local Manchester marmalade experts, Duerr's. Exactly as you'd expect, this a real citrus fest, with botanicals including lime, lemon, tangerine, seville orange and bergamot. At the end of distillation, the spirit passes over sweet orange peel to extract the essential oils. More traditional botanicals of juniper, coriander, grains of paradise and vanilla bring some balance and extra complexity to the profile. To taste, there are initial peppery notes of pine and citrus. On the mid palate, the mixed citrus fruits really shine together, with soft vanilla flavour coming through in the finish. Zymurgorium suggest serving it in a Tom Collins with an extra teaspoon of marmalade stirred in for a real zesty treat. |
