From the 5th to the 11th of August 2019, Ableforth’s hosted a seven day bar takeover in seven different cities in seven different countries and dubbed it ‘A Week Well Spent’ for obvious reasons. To commemorate that busy ol’ week, the team released this limited edition bottling of Bathtub Gin! Very snazzy, wouldn’t you agree?

Bathtub Gin – Ableforth’s Week Well Spent | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: An initially juniper-rich bouquet is backed up with a solid backbone of rich grain spirit. Top notes of cardamom and orange blossom are evident with just a suggestion of cinnamon.

Palate: The initial focus is juniper, but the earthier botanicals make themselves known in the initial palate too. Mouthfeel is exceptionally viscous and creamy this is good spirit, and it makes itself known.

Finish: The juniper subsides and gives way to cardamom and cinnamon, with a late resurgence from orange peel.
