Portrait: What makes the Indian Summer Saffron Infused Gin special.

The Indian Summer Saffron Infused Gin is an exceptional premium gin with Scottish roots. It is produced by the renowned independent bottler Duncan Taylor, a name synonymous with quality and craftsmanship in the world of spirits. With an alcohol content of 46% vol., this gin is a special choice for lovers of characterful spirits.

The special feature of this gin lies not only in its carefully selected botanicals, but above all in the use of real saffron, one of the most precious spices in the world. This gives the gin its unique, warm golden hue and also sets it apart visually from classic gins. In addition to saffron, classic ingredients such as juniper berries, angelica root, cinnamon bark, licorice, coriander, lemon and orange peel, as well as almonds and orris root are used.

The quality of this gin was impressively confirmed in 2015: Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, one of the most important international spirits competitions. With the Indian Summer Gin, Duncan Taylor offers an exclusive infused gin that impresses with its origin, production and its elegant appearance. A real highlight for any well-stocked bar.

Tasting Notes: This is what Indian Summer Saffron Infused Gin tastes like

• Nose: Delicately spicy and complex with a clear juniper aroma in the foreground - followed by floral and warm nuances - the characteristic saffron in particular reveals itself with a slightly earthy, spicy depth - delicate hints of cinnamon, citrus, and herbs harmoniously round off the aroma, and a fine sweetness is reminiscent of dried orange peel and almond
• Palate: Soft, balanced, yet powerful on the palate - the gin unfolds an intense spiciness, carried by coriander, cinnamon, and orris root - the citrus freshness of lemon and orange peel brings vibrancy, while the saffron lends elegant warmth and depth - subtle hints of licorice and almonds provide additional structure and a velvety Mouthfeel
• Finish: long-lasting and pleasantly dry with spicy and floral notes - the saffron remains present and gives the finish a noble, almost velvety note - a hint of sweetness and herbal spice fades away slowly without dominating
