Noosa Heads Distillery

I received the Fortune Signature Dry Gin from my Gin club and I am very happy with this gorgeous gin. The bottle comes with a label that is a sew on patch which is quirky and fun and has the motto “Fortune Flavours the Brave” Straight up, I could smell citrus and juniper.

Once I added tonic, I lost some of the juniper but could pick up honeydew melon. I love the citrus and melon mix; it is a smooth and light gin with a delicate spice finish.

The botanicals in this are Juniper, Green tea, Honeydew melon, Cassia, Lemongrass, Lemon peel, Lavender and Coriander. I tried this gin with two different tonics. My favourite G & T was with Mediterranean tonic. It was a little smoother and the flavours from the gin really shone through.

I have been making some cocktails with this gin too and found it lends itself to fruity drinks quite nicely. Some ingredients I have used in the cocktails are Aloe Vera drink, Coconut liqueur, Marmalade, Grapefruit sugar syrup, Honeydew melon, Ginger & lemongrass cordial and Cream.
