About this deal

The perfect serve for this gin would be to add tonic water and ice and garnish with a violet flower. This gin would also work amazing in a spritz if paired with prosecco. Artful Pour Violet Gin

Another thing that makes Whitley Neill stand out from most flavored gins is that all their gins have an ABV of 43%. This means that all of their spirits are still mostly focused on creating a gin instead of just a sweetened drink with a bit of alcohol in it. This gin uses a blend of eight botanicals a few of which are, juniper berries, angelica root, coriander, licorice, and of course violet. This combination creates a scent that is smooth and quite floral.For some people, more experienced gin drinkers mainly, this means that they won’t like the drinking experience of a violet gin, because they enjoy the bitterness and the juniper-forward taste that gins normally have to offer.

The base gin for McQueen’s Violet Gin is their super premium dry gin. On the nose, this gin is strongly juniper led with a forestry aroma. After the juniper taste, there’s a rich vanilla sweetness with a light spice followed by crispy lime notes. Their base gin for the Parma Violet gin is a multi-award-winning London Dry gin. This gin is an amazing spirit. It’s really smooth and crisp with great notes of juniper berries.

This gin is really sweet and is therefore amazing for drinking neat. You could also create a sweet ‘Pamplemousse spritz’ with this gin if it’s mixed with Aperol and pink grapefruit soda garnished with some grapefruit. On the nose, this drink has lots of floral violet notes. The taste is floral as well with a touch of vanilla. This gin finishes with subtle peppery juniper notes. The new ready-to-drink 250ml cans come in two flavours: Boe Violet Gin and Rose Lemonade, and Boe Passion Fruit Gin with Sicilian Lemonade. But if you’re looking to experiment a bit more with this gin, you should definitely try a negroni! Two Birds Parma Violet Gin The only thing they have to keep in mind is that the predominant flavor in a gin has to come from the juniper berry (if you want to know why that is, we explain that in this article).

The brand Boë is named after Franz de la Boë, who to some stories is believed to be the inventor of the spirit we call gin. Boë Gin takes pride in the quality of gin and in its ability to be distinctive by bringing new flavors to gin. The parma violet is so popular due to the well-known British sweets from Swizzels Matlow called Parma Violets. Gins that use the parma violet often try to resemble the taste of these popular British sweets as closely as possible. This drink is really sweet on its own does mean that a lot of people will probably like it when it’s drunk neat. The bitter taste a gin normally offers will be toned down quite a bit. The first gin on the list is the violet gin from J.J. Whitley. J.J. Whitley is a brand that is well-known for making flavored gins and vodkas. The Whitley family has been distilling these spirits since 1762, so they’re bound to have a ton of experience.If you’re not extremely into sweet drinks then mixing it with a neutral tonic is also a great option while the floral violet notes will still be very much present.
