-15%Pour this and the room shifts. Juniper and bright citrus hit first, then something quieter sneaks in: green tea, a grassy hum, a little pepper. It's smooth enough to sip slow but built to make a serious G&T, the kind that makes a hot Nairobi night feel like a plan instead of a problem. India's most-decorated craft gin, and once you taste why, it stays in the cabinet.
First sniff is classic gin done right: piney juniper and that fresh, almost lemony lift from coriander. Then the citrus opens up, sweet orange and lemon peel, tart and juicy. Sip it and it turns velvety, almost like lemon tart with a soft creamy edge, before the clever stuff arrives: earthy vetiver, a peppery cubeb tingle, and a cool green-tea freshness on the finish from the Darjeeling leaves. Long, gently warm, never sharp.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Jaisalmer comes from Radico Khaitan, who distil at the historic Rampur distillery, one of India's oldest. It's triple-distilled in a copper pot still by master distiller Anup Barik, with the botanicals vapour-infused on the final pass so the flavours come through delicate rather than heavy. Seven of the eleven botanicals are sourced across India, with coriander and vetiver coming from the golden desert city of Jaisalmer itself, the gin's namesake.
