Time to make some more gin as, having given some away for Christmas presents we were running out and I still needed some for sisters Sue and Kirsty when we meet up with Kirsty next week.
I thought I'd persevere with trying to imitate Tanqueray gin (as I tried in #18 - see here and #19 - see here) and see if I can get closer to its taste. Last time's was a bit strong in coriander so I reduced that in the recipe and I upped the angelica a little.. This was my recipe...
| Botanical | Last Time | This Time |
|---|---|---|
| Juniper | 30g | 30g |
| Coriander | 15g | 9g |
| Angelica | 1g | 1.5g |
| Liquorice | 4g | 3g |
| Lemon Peel (fresh) | 1.5g | 1.5g |
On Friday, as usual, I measured out my botanicals into a kilner jar with 1l vodka, gave it a shake or two and left it overnight to use for distilling yesterday..
