Looking for a classic gin with an American twist? Pop by our shop and try our new line up of American gins named Blue coat gins.
The Inspiration of Bluecoat
The Bluecoat brand was created in Boston and it is inspired by the revolutionary wars of independence when the American revolutionaries were literally dressed in Blue coats.
These fine spirits are available in 3 different flavours, the classic, the bluecoat barrel aged and the Bluecoat Elderflower .
When we first received our samples the team at Franks Gentlemen’s Essentials was over the moon to open and taste these highly rated gins. We immediately opened the bottles and tried the Blue coat classic.
The Tasting
Notes of the Bluecoat classic .
A taste of juniper is evident with notes of citrus, an ideal spirit to enjoy in our hot summer months.
Notes of the Bluecoat Elderflower.
Rose petals and elderflower kick off the fragrant nose, with plenty of lemon peel and pith. The palate remains floral, with more of that rose-elderflower tandem, while also showcasing an herbaceous side backed by spicy peppermint. A floral finish showcases orange peel and pink peppercorns.
Notes of the Bluecoat Barrel aged
Being aged for at least 3 months in a barrel this gives the original gin a creamy flavour with hints of vanilla and juniper.
