Gin

Aroma: Harahorn Gin is bright with juniper. Despite, the contemporary botanical bill, green juniper and unctuous angelica root stars.

Flavor: Long and complex, Harahorn Gin unfolds on the palate showcasing tradition and some of the more unusual botanicals. Early, juniper with hints of anise, coriander and other spice. It segues into a rich, citrusy heart. Lemon zest becomes slightly jammy. The combination of blueberry, rhubarb, citrus and others suggest blackberry jam, nectarine and blueberry syrup.

Just when you think it’s going to be very contemporary, the juniper comes in strongly as the spirit recedes on the palate. Bright, bold, green and herbaceous juniper. Slight hints of coolness and menthol appear on the edge of the palate.

Finish: Warm, dry and long. The combination of juniper and blueberries gently holds on for quite a long time.

Harahorn Gin is produced in small batches— 300 liters at a time— at Norway’s second largest distillery, Det Norske Brenneri.
