Gordon's Pink Gin 1L
★★★★★ 4.8 (4 reviews)Pour this and the night gets a little softer. Think ripe strawberries and raspberries with a clean juniper backbone keeping it honest, so it's sweet but never sticky. It's the bottle you crack open when friends pile through the door and someone shouts for a G&T. A full litre means you're not rationing. Pink, easy, ready whenever you are.
The nose hits you first: jammy red berries, raspberry and strawberry, with a little zip behind them. On the tongue it's gently sweet and rounded, those summer-fruit flavours up front and a tart redcurrant tang to stop it going syrupy. Underneath, the classic Gordon's juniper holds the line so it still drinks like a proper gin, not a fruit cordial. The finish is short and clean, leaving you wanting the next sip.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This comes from Gordon's, the English gin house going strong since 1769 and one of the most poured gins on the planet. The pink version isn't a gimmick dreamed up yesterday, it's built on an original 1880 recipe that leaned on red-fruit flavours. They keep the trademark Gordon's juniper character and layer in natural raspberry, strawberry and redcurrant. Same dependable backbone, dressed in pink.
