Gilt Gin Review & Tasting Notes

About Gilt Gin
Gilt Single Malt Scottish Gin was launched in 2012, has the same single malt base that would be used for Scotch Whiskey, and is distilled in-house 5 times from malted barley and water from the River Spey. Produced in-house at  Strathleven Distillery, Gilt Gin adds to Scotland's growing gin reputation.

The Gin Guide Review
With its striking tall, green bottle, Gilt Gin is something different to most other gins you'll try. In fact, it's best enjoyed either neat or in a martini or negroni, rather than in a gin and tonic. It's earthy and warming with liqourice coming through strongly and the single malt base is prominent in the flavouring ahead of the botanicals. - Paul Jackson, 2015
