BC Spirits "Spirit a Day" #195 - Pacific Rim Distillery Lighthouse Gin

DISTILLERY NOTES

Lighthouse Gin is one of a kind. We use nine unique botanicals, all hand foraged and local to Barkley Sound, including Salal and Shorepine. These flavours complement our base spirit, made with 100% BC malted barley and fermented with our own wild yeast culture.

BC SPIRITS NOTES

Thanks to followers for the recommendation for this amazingly unique Pacific Rim Distilling Lighthouse Gin. Following along the same flavors you find in PNW style gins but with a distinct Ucluelet terroir. Great little number, perfect for a BC Negroni.

Alcohol - 42% / 84 proof

Color - Watermelon pink

Nose - Hints of Salal berries and Nootka Rose along with that deep base spirit

Taste - Earthy and yeasty base spirit with complex botanicals that focus on forest, sea and beach. Slight sweetness from the salal and nootka rose, simple but effective juniper punch

Finish - Hint of fragrant berries and petals along with long sour, earthy grain notes

Best Enjoyed - BC Negroni with Esquimalt Wine Co. Dry Vermouth and Woods Amaro
