Perfume Trees Gin
Perfume Trees · Two Moons Distillery
Named for the Aglaia trees that once blanketed Hong Kong's hillsides, Perfume Trees Gin channels East Asian botanicals through an unmistakably London Dry framework. The result is precise, aromatic, and deeply refreshing. It bridges traditions without losing identity.
Nose
Juniper leads confidently but quickly makes room for a burst of grapefruit peel and delicate floral notes. An undercurrent of ginger and warm cassia bark adds aromatic depth.
Palate
Silky entry with a bright citrus-forward profile — lemon zest and grapefruit intertwine with herbaceous juniper. Midpalate, the floral rose character blooms alongside angelica root and a flash of white pepper.
Finish
Clean and moderately long, with juniper and ginger warmth persisting as the florals gently recede.

Isle of Raasay Hebridean Gin
Isle of Raasay
Isle of Raasay Hebridean Gin is a study in clarity through constraint — a tight botanical bill drawn from the island's own terrain, distilled with disciplined intent. It proves that limitation breeds focus: every botanical earns its place, nothing competes, and the result is a gin of luminous transparency. A quiet triumph from one of Scotland's most purposeful young distilleries.
New Riff Distilling Kentucky Wild Gin
New Riff Distilling
New Riff's Kentucky Wild Gin is a beautifully aerated spirit—distilled with a thoughtful openness to the botanicals' natural character. It's proof that a whiskey-focused distillery can channel that same reverence for terroir and process into a gin of real poise and clarity. A versatile, sippable gin that breathes Kentucky air.
Cadenhead's Old Raj Dry Gin
Cadenhead's
Old Raj is a gin of rare character—the saffron infusion turns a classic juniper-forward profile into something genuinely singular, perfect for the waning warmth of November. Its navy strength makes it a commanding presence in cocktails or neat, and its Scottish provenance from one of the oldest independent bottlers in the world lends quiet authority. A gin that feels like the last golden light before winter.
Ford's Gin Officers' Reserve Navy Strength Gin
Ford's Gin
Officers' Reserve is the rare navy strength gin that earns its extra proof through genuine complexity rather than brute force. The brief Oloroso sherry cask rest is a masterclass in restraint—adding just enough richness to elevate the classic Ford's botanical profile without obscuring it. A gin that rewards trust in the process, and in the craft of blending tradition with innovation.
