The Sabre London Dry Gin 700mL
The West Winds Sabre (40% ABV) is a uniquely Australian take on a traditional London Dry Gin. The flavours in this bright, aromatic gin are led by an undercurrent of Citrus with a dominance of Juniper, followed by the classic Coriander seed. The addition of Wattle Seed adds a depth to the mid palate and introduces a creamy texture to the gin. Perfect as a classic G&T with Lemon to release the intricacies of this uniquely styled gin.
