Fred Jerbis 'Gin 43' Italian Gin (700ml)
Review Date: 11/2019
This is by far one of my favorite gins. Fred Jerbis has not only created a stunningly aromatic gin, it is also has a profound mouthfeel that's not like any other I've ever tried. You absolutely get orange blossoms, saffron, mint, thyme, then lingering juniper berries and rowan berries. This finishes with a tad bit of sweetness that is natural. This is a perfect sipping gin. But if you must, a tonic or soda water is also a great complement to round out the flavors.

Notes
Not a London Dry nor a fancy new wave concoction, the Jerbis gin strikes a balance between elegance, complexity, and a juniper forward aroma. The recipe uses 43 botanicals and includes citrus, juniper, and chamomile. All of Fred's herbs are grown in his garden or foraged within 50km of his home in the far north east of Italy. All infusions are done separately with both hot and cold extraction and a few are steam distilled with water (not alcohol) to best extract teh essential oils. This reflects Fred's mastery of the dark arts of profumeria to maximize his meticulously chosen herbs.
