Harvest Gin 2019
Harvest 2019 Poorman's Orange Gin is the first spirit from a new vintage series that celebrates the bounty and diversity of Australia’s annual harvest. Featuring individually distilled Poorman’s orange and bergamot orange peel, emerald green finger lime and lemon scented gum, this first vintage gin is bold and complex with a naturally infused orange blossom blush.
Tasting Notes
Nose
The scent greets you like a spring orchard; heady with vibrant citrus peel, fresh flowers and dewy grass. As the aroma settles tropical fruits, honey, pine and berry sherbet can be found.
Palate
A syrupy texture makes way for pronounced and nuanced citrus underpinned by mango before resolving with raspberry jam.
Finish
Lime zest, pine and a citrus pith create a satisfyingly dry conclusion. Lingers with citrus and juniper.
