Vanaha Gin is a small batch sipping gin distilled in Goa from 24 botanicals, anchored by Himalayan juniper and built out with deodar wood, patchouli, cacao nibs and wild citrus. The gin goes through five separate stages, including vapour infusion and cold vacuum distillation, to keep its more delicate botanicals intact. It suits someone looking for an earthy, forest inspired gin rather than a straightforward citrus forward London Dry style.
CHARACTER
Juniper: Wakes the palate at the core, calm and clear
Lemon: Wild lemon brightens the nose from the first breath
Orange Peel: Sweet orange lifts alongside the lemon
Lime: Kaffir lime leaf adds a fresh citrus edge
Chocolate: Cacao nibs deepen the mid-palate
Forest Floor: Patchouli and vetiver bring a damp, earthy hush
TASTING NOTES
NOSE- Wild lemon and sweet orange open bright, with kaffir lime leaf and a soft edge of wild berries underneath.
PALATE- Juniper leads on entry before deodar wood, pine, patchouli, cacao and vetiver build an earthy, forest like depth.
FINISH- Long and silken, closing on a gentle echo of wild spice.
