other gins<\/a> made by distilling wine grapes, but not many. Using grapes instead of grain usually gives the spirit a fruitier character. The fact that Feather & Folly is distilled using copper pot stills suggests that the character of the grapes will be better preserved. To this distillate are added six botanicals: juniper berries, angelica, black lime, coriander, licorice root and orange zest. Let\u2019s see how the distillate influences the taste and character of the gin.<\/p>\nFeather & Folly Gin Review<\/h2>\n
On the nose, Feather & Folly Gin fits the classic London dry style, offering piney juniper balanced with lemon and lime citrus. On the palate, however, the gin\u2019s true character appears. Bold, piney juniper hits first along with lots of fresh cracked pepper, and a pronounced grape note. The use of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes is undeniable here. Lemon and lime citrus notes follow along with a light herbal note, all of which lasts through the long finish. The use of copper pot stills is noticeable in the gin\u2019s lovely, oily mouthfeel.<\/p>\n
Adding an ice cube and allowing a bit of dilution improved the experience by marrying the flavors together more effectively. The gin also works well in a martini, playing nicely with dry vermouth, though I recommend a lemon twist instead of an olive. And fans of gin & tonic will appreciate how the fruitiness of the gin pairs with the light bitterness of tonic. Lots here to enjoy and the price is right for a quality gin.<\/p>\n
