That Boutique-Y Gin Company Spit-Roasted Pineapple Gin, 70cl

I recently tried another brand of pineapple gin and was really impressed by it, however it wasn't as strong and was twice the price.This spit roasted pineapple gin was only £20.95 at the time of review and boasts a 46%abv.Wow, wow, wow...the flavour is amazing. It has a warming taste due to the high alcohol level. It's fairly rich and sweet for gin, with a smooth initial and after taste.I love the flakes of sediment / pineapple in the bottle, which really make the bottle look impressive. The gin also has a great colour tone to it.This is now officially my favourite alcoholic drink. I love pineapple and this is just so amazing all round.

Tastes amazing and great for a nice gift for someone

A really great flavour

The first thing I noticed was the awful pungent smell ......I can only describe it as sour, mouldy molasses. No taste of pineapple or roasted caramelised sugar. I tried mixing it with tonic, then lemonade and after that - ginger ale. Nothing made it taste good or could take the smell away. The most vile gin I've ever encountered.

If you are a lover of sweet fruity gins and the flavour pineapple then you will love this one. Tried it at a gin bar in Oxted a few months back. They paired it with a garnish of dried pineapple and fentimans valencian orange tonic. Its yummy. Very smooth, probably good in cocktails too.

What can I say?! This drink is one of the more flavourful artisan gins I've tried in a long time. The caramelised flavours really do come through, and whether it's paired with a normal tonic or a ginger beer, it's creates a really tasty drink. It's naturally on the sweeter and fruitier side of things, so if that's your bag then you are probably going to really like this, especially if pineapple is something you like as well. Definitely one for those colder, winter nights!

Unlike any gin I have had before. Rich and sweet with a weight of flavour. I had it straight but a friend had it over ice and another had it with coke and said it was good. I bought a bottle for my wife and one of our friends, both bottles were gone within a week! Dangerous stuff as it doesn’t taste alcoholic at all!

I only used the headline as my wife (OK it was her birthday present) did not share enough of the bottle with me :-)Having tasted the very intriguing and pleasant flavour I could not really blame her for that, but still...Although we are making our way through various new flavours at the moment, this is one we will definitely come back to!
