6/10
Straight lavender with a bitter finish. It's so much lavender, so much citrusy gin notes. Maybe could enjoy it if it didn't have a very very long bitter finish. Gnarly how much gin flavor there is though.

Bottle at share. Medium golden, spotty head. Herbal, floral aroma. Taste is more of this botanical base, coupled with a sharp tartness.

750ml bottle pours out crisp golden topped with a white head. Nose is big lavender some gin kick. Taste is more of the big lavender gin barrel funk.

Tap at MASHfest in Barcellona. Cloudy orangey pour with an adhesive white foam. Nose is lavender forward, a bit basil. Mouth: although the nose is totally lavander mouthfeel is citric, tart, not much invasive but sourish and clean grapefruit.
