Tulchan Gin

Tulchan Gin is a London Dry style gin distilled in Speyside, Scotland, at the Tulchan Estate, known for its rich natural landscape on the banks of the River Spey. It is crafted in small batches, emphasizing the quality and character derived from its unique blend of 14 botanicals, many of which are inspired by the flora and fauna of the Tulchan Estate. These botanicals include traditional gin staples alongside more distinctive local elements such as sloe berries, elderflower, blackberry leaves, and even white asparagus. The aim is to create a smooth and balanced gin that reflects the terroir of its Scottish Highlands origin.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: The aroma typically presents a good balance of juniper with fresh citrus notes, often described with hints of sweet pine. There are also subtle floral undertones of chamomile and elderflower, alongside a touch of herbal freshness from sage. Some detect a jammy sweetness from the sloe berries.
• Palate: The gin offers a smooth and velvety texture. The palate features a prominent yet not overpowering juniper note, complemented by a sweet citrus character. The unique botanicals contribute layers of flavor, including whimsical floral notes, a subtle sweetness from the elderflower and sloe berries, and a hint of vegetal bitterness that provides balance. Some detect a touch of winter spice and a slightly syrupy mouthfeel.
• Finish: The finish is generally long and elegant with a lingering warmth. The citrus notes often persist, accompanied by the gentle sweetness of the elderflower and a subtle spicy undertone. Some reviews note a slightly bitter and dry finish with hints of licorice.
