The nose of this flavoured gin is dominated by complex fruity & floral aromas. The taste is very smooth with distinctive flavours of juniper berries in the foreground surrounded by spicy flavours of licorice, caraway & fennel. Pink gin started out life as a sea farers breakfast, drank to rally a man against the wiles of the ocean, but now it's had a modern make over by The Bitter Truth. It begins with a Mediterranean bouquet on the nose, with juniper, lemons & warm spices. Wonderfully calm in the mouth, juniper is still at the helm but it is supported by a crew of fresh spiced flavours like licorice, caraway & fennel which cruise to a smooth whirlpool finish.

The Bitter Truth Pink Gin is a delicious blend of traditionally crafted gin & aromatic bitters. It is designed to please modern tastes with a soft & gentle mouth feel & fine complex flavours. It is best used on its own, as a Gin & Tonic or in your favorite Martini Cocktail. Won gold medal at the Femmes et Spiritueux du Monde Concours International Monaco in 2011. ...
