Experimental Series

Our Experimental Series was our first born steps into the exciting world of the Spirit industry. Series #1, #2 & #3, #4 & #5 have come and gone and now we are launching Experimental Series #6. Taking inspiration from our landscape, and the people around us. The aim is to produce spirits that are exciting and evocative.

Our Experimental Series are available to buy online and in our Bottle Shops in Ullapool and Fort William.

 
 

Tasting Notes

 

Experimental Series #1

Nose: Aromatic notes of spice, wild herbs and juniper.

Palate: Opulent sweet fruit notes with a spicy, juniper back bone. The assertive coriander and juniper character of the gin mixes nicely with your favourite tonic.

Finish: Long lasting with an elegant citrus and aromatically spiced finish.

Experimental Series #1 is sold out.

 
 

Experimental Series #2

Nose: Vivid notes of juniper, orchard fruit notes and aromatic pepper spice note.

Palate: Spicy, crisp and assertive without tonic. With tonic, the coriander element mixes beautifully with the tonic whilst allowing the pink pepper and fruit notes to come through.

Finish: A satisfying gin and tonic (especially served with a garnish of blood orange or pink grapefruit).

Experimental Series #2 is sold out.

 

Experimental Series #3

Nose: Scents of the forest floor with a twist of pepper and coriander spice and zesty citrus hint.

Palate: Spicy, warm notes of coriander and cinnamon (perhaps a hint of curry powder) with a pleasing juniper and toffee character. With tonic the coriander and juniper come to the fore with a warm, spicy finish. Holds well with the tonic and an orange slice.

Finish: A well flavoured gin to warm those winter nights (or days).

Experimental Series #3 is sold out.

Experimental Series #4

Nose: Juniper led nose with fruit, rosehips, pink pepper, spice and hints of the forest floor.

Palate: An assertive palate of juniper, spice and earthy notes. Mixes well with tonic and the fruit notes came through, spice balances the tonic with the earthy and forest floor flavours coming through on the finish.

To bring out its full flavour we recommend skipping the tonic and using it in a Vesper Martini cocktail.

Experimental Series #4 is sold out.

Experimental Series #5

Nose: A lightweight delicate nose with coriander leaf to the fore and hints of citrus in the background. 

Palate: A rich, almost sweet palate with a suggestion of juniper and spice with coriander leaf still prominent throughout.

Finish: Makes a nice, easy going Gin & Tonic with notes of coriander and an attractive and fresh citrus lift on palate.

Experimental Series #5 is sold out.

Experimental Series #6

Three months rested in a cask that started life in America as a bourbon cask, followed by a second life at Worthy Park in Jamaica where it aged rum for four years.

The base gin, like all of our experimental series gins before it is the product of various distillery trials in developing new products. The gin has picked up some tropical notes with some vanilla sweetness from the barrel wood.

We recommend serving this one neat or over ice with ginger ale and a slice of orange.
