Pomo & Whimsy Description
Back in the heyday of gin, the spirit’s seductive nature earned it the nickname Mother Gin. From lords to ladies, mistresses to maids, all were captivated by the exotic botanicals within.
Today we return to the dawn of the affair with a reinvention of the classic gin cordial style, updated for a contemporary palate. Bringing fancy, modernity and dare we say it, a touch of femininity, to this wondrously old-world spirit. It's gin. Reimagined.
Pomp & Whimsy brings modern sensibilities to the tradition of gin making by infusing classically distilled gin with a delightfully flavorful botanical liqueur. The result is a highly refined, yet playfully sensorial spirit, that is both graceful by itself, and effortlessly dressed, up or down. Twice infused and re-distilled with a select blend of 16 natural and whole botanicals, including juniper, coriander, grapefruit, orange, lychee, cucumber and jasmine pearls.
On the Palate: Light citrus and exotic fruits are prominent on the start, evolving into a dry, warm spice finish, with a familiar suggestion of citrusy juniper on the tail. Subtly sweet and eminently quaffable. Delicious sipped by itself, topped with soda, tonic or champagne, or used in place of gin in classic cocktails.
Wine Enthusiast: 94 Points
This is lightly sweet, distinctly (but not overly) floral and compulsively quaffable. You'll want to add this cucumber-dominant gin liqueur to spring cocktails, although it also sips surprisingly well straight up. Kara Newman
