About Coconut

Coconut is unusual in gin, but used with restraint it can contribute more to texture than overt flavour. Rather than turning tropical or sweet, it can read as a gentle creaminess or velvety mid-palate that broadens the structure of the spirit. It is most effective when it supports other botanicals rather than announcing itself.
