Tasting notes

Rich fig opens broadly on the palate, easing into warm notes of coconut and vanilla. A fresh basil lift arrives at the finish. Verdant, clean and surprisingly elegant.

Field notes

Signature botanical

Fig leaf

Ficus carica

Fig leaves smell of green fig and coconut. They give Verdant its broad, rich fig and its warm notes of coconut and vanilla.

Signature botanical

Basil leaf

Ocimum basilicum

Fresh basil arrives at the finish and lifts everything before it.

In every gin

Juniper

Juniperus communis

Juniper is in every bottle, as it should be. The signature botanicals on each label are what make each gin its own, so Classic tastes nothing like Verdant.
