Avva Gin
Hand-Crafted & Small-Batch Gin. Orange And Lime Peels Arrive First On The Nose, But Are Quickly Backed Up By Refreshing, Vegetal Herbs. A Crackle Of Peppery Juniper Lasts Throughout.
When They Say Hand-Crafted & Small-Batch, This Is The Entire Truth. The Small-Batch Distilled Spirit Is Bottled By Hand, With Each Bottle Being Individually Numbered And Signed By The Master Distiller.
Avva – Means A Respected Grand-Mother, A Respected Mother, Any Old Or Respectable Woman In The Indian Language Of Dravidian. In Hebrew It Means To Overturn Or Ruin Which Links The Reputation That Gin Had As ‘Mother’s Ruin’ From The Hogarth Era.

Palate – Cool at first. It quickly mellows out, warmth growing with citrus keeping it fresh throughout.
Finish – Long, with a good spice.
Nose – Light and delicate coriander and complex floral tones up front. A light, hoppy characteristic.
Palate – Soft tropical fruit follows with an undercurrent of juniper. Spiced grapefruit and lime peel become bitter lemon and lime rind.

Nose – Warming, oaky nose with fresh pine notes. Spicy green pepper and juniper overtones.
