Hinch Ninth Wave Irish Gin

Hinch Ninth Wave Irish Gin is a premium Irish gin produced by the Hinch Distillery in County Down, Northern Ireland. The name "Ninth Wave" is inspired by Irish mythology, where the ninth wave was the greatest and most powerful wave, separating the earthly world from the mystical "Otherworld." The gin aims to capture the essence of Ireland's coastlines and maritime heritage.

Key Features:

• Irish Origin: Produced by Hinch Distillery in County Down, Northern Ireland.

• Distillation: A portion of the botanicals is macerated overnight in the base spirit, followed by a secondary distillation in a gin pot still over an eight-hour period. Some botanicals are also vapor-infused.
• ABV: Bottled at 43% ABV.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Vibrant and citrus-led, with abundant citrus notes, particularly lemon, alongside pine from the juniper and a touch of fresh mint. Some detect sweet vanilla and dew-covered grass.
• Palate: Well-balanced and smooth, with key lime pie, honey, and juniper prominent. A wave of cardamom and a hint of aromatic spice are also present. Some describe summer berries and a soft, almost creamy, texture.
• Finish: Lingering with a bit of spice and the citrus notes fading gently. Some note a slightly tart and herbal finish with a touch of vanilla.

Overall Impression:

Hinch Ninth Wave Irish Gin is a well-regarded gin that offers a refreshing and balanced profile. The citrus notes are particularly prominent, complemented by the traditional juniper and a touch of spice from the cardamom and grains of paradise. It's considered a versatile gin that works well in a classic Gin and Tonic, especially with a wedge of lime or pink grapefruit, and also shines in cocktails like a Martini.
