Ballyvolane House Spirits Company Limited - Bertha's Revenge Gin (70Cl)

We use whey alcohol which is derived from milk produced by local dairy farmers here in Cork, together with our own natural well water and an interesting mix of locally foraged and exotic botanicals, we have hand-crafted a gin that is authentic, delicious and evocative of our terroir. Our distillery is located in the farm yard at Ballyvolane House in Castlelyons, Co. Cork.

Nose – Jaunty juniper leads, followed quickly by the spicy and warming notes of cardamon, cumin and sweet citrus. The complexity of Bertha is evident and enthralling. She demands to be tasted.

Palate – our whey alcohol base comes to the fore on the palate. Like a conductor of an orchestra, she holds and releases the different notes to maximum effect. Effortlessly smooth from the start, sweet orange, coriander and peppery Alexanders are joined in a warming motherly caress of cumin, clove and cardamon. The generous nature of the spirit washes over the palate, finishing in a gentle spice-tinted heat that delivers a considered murmur of approval from your taste buds.
