Mermaid Zest Gin

Mermaid Zest Gin is the citrus-driven expression from the Isle of Wight Distillery in Ryde, England, made by founders Xavier Baker and Conrad Gauntlett on the UNESCO Biosphere island off the south coast. It starts from the same backbone as the original Mermaid Gin, juniper, coriander, angelica, hand-foraged rock samphire and locally grown Boadicea hops, macerated in grain spirit and distilled in a copper column still, then layers in bergamot grown in the island's microclimate and rosemary foraged from the coastline. Bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV), 750ml, in a plastic-free sea-green bottle; the distillery is a certified B Corp that funds marine conservation. The producer describes bright, fresh grapefruit on the nose with gentle juniper, followed by a citrus zing, subtle sweetness and herbal notes on the palate. Master of Malt's tasting note runs from resinous juniper into grapefruit and floral bergamot with warm spice on the finish. It is built for a gin and tonic with a grapefruit wedge and rosemary sprig, makes a lively Gimlet or Tom Collins, and is good enough to sip over ice with a twist of lemon.
