Tasting Journey
About This Whisky
Edinburgh Gin – Strawberry & Pink Pepper (70cl, 40 %)
What it is
-
A flavoured gin from Edinburgh Gin, combining traditional gin botanicals.
-
Bottled at 40 % ABV and in a 70 cl format (common “gin-bottle” size).
Aroma / Nose
-
You’ll get sweet, fresh strawberry notes — juicy and reminiscent of summer berries.
-
Underlying that: a soft spicy-peppery warmth from the pink peppercorns — enough to add complexity, but not heavy spice.
Palate (Taste)
-
The primary note is jammy strawberry sweetness, rich and fruity — almost like a strawberry dessert-type vibe.
-
Balanced by a tingly, subtle peppery kick from the pink peppercorns. That pepperiness doesn’t dominate, but gives a gentle “tingle” that contrasts nicely with the sweetness.
Finish
-
Smooth and relatively clean — the peppercorn leaves a lingering warmth rather than a harsh spice.
Best Ways to Serve It
-
Gin & Tonic: Classic tonic water, plenty of ice, and garnish with fresh strawberry slices (and maybe a sprig of mint or basil) — this way you enhance the fruitiness.
-
Light & Sparkling Mixers: Soda water, or light tonic — you could even experiment with a splash of lemonade or a citrus-tonic mix to brighten it and contrast with the sweetness. (The floral/spicy peppercorn character might pair well with something light and refreshing.)
Who It’s Good For
-
Lovers of fruity, sweet-forward gins but who don’t want something cloying or overly sweet.
-
People who enjoy a twist on classic gin — the peppercorn adds subtle spice and depth rather than turning it into a dessert-like liqueur.
-
As a summer gin — fresh strawberries, ice, tonic: it fits well for warm-weather drinks, garden parties or relaxed evenings.
