Poetic License Honey Bee Blossom 43.2% - 70cl

Poetic License was conceived back in October 2014 with an aim to launch in May 2015. It's hard to find quality quickly, in bottles, in corks, in recipes and distilleries, and so after a long journey, batch one of Northern Dry Gin was produced in their 500 litre still 'Gracie' in July 2015 and the first bottle sold on the 22nd of September 2015. Poetic Licence is distilled in Sunderland using the traditional 'one-shot' method, the gins are brought down to bottling strength using nothing but pure mineral water.

This particular rarities variant involves a seperate distillation of the floral botanicals to make more of the delicate notes. 

The Taste

Sweetness from bee pollen leads a floral and honey flavoured gin. Jasmine and Orange Blossom provide a fragrant and light floral note which is supported by a sweet honey note from bee pollen. The presence of basil supports the juniper and provides a dry, crisp finish that means this is still very much a gin that can be enjoyed as a gin and tonic..
