Flavor: Citrus is surprisingly prominent throughout the palate. Orange zest segues into slightly herbal and green juniper. Mid-palate, juniper is pronounced and front and center. Becomes greener, with more kelp, thyme, and some vegetal undertones. Though famously shy about disclosing them, sea kelp and creeping coastal thyme are among the sea-inspired additions. Tasting notes Overall Neptunia Gin has a bright aroma of citrus followed by a complex herbal and floral mix including chamomile and faint cucumber.

Aroma: Hints of kelp/saline add a seaside character to a brightly citrus nose. Herbal and floral facets, including a hint of chamomile, lend Neptunia Gin a round and complex nose, with a hint of green juniper to balance things out. Neptunia will be delicious with citrus, especially lime. Absolutely go for Gin and Tonic, Gimlet and even a Gin Margarita.

I saw others recommend pairing Neptunia Gin with lemonade. I’m a bit less convinced as I think the saline qualities, whether perceived or present, run counter. It becomes a bit more herbal and savory. At least for me, these are qualities I’m less of a fan of in a gin and lemonade.
