Nice but slightly overpriced
Good quality spirit but slightly overpriced for what it is. The earthy resin is the highlight — a subtle citrus note from the Simcoe hops and well-presented. On the palate, the The wheat base is clean is fine but not exciting. At £34.95, I'd expect more character. The finish is pleasant but brief. A reliable mixer.

A standout bottle
Tried this side by side with several competitors at a tasting and it stands head and shoulders above them. The nose gives you More savoury and herbaceous than its Citra sibling — it's immediately apparent this is quality. Then the palate opens up with More challenging than the Citra but equally fascinating and the danish wheat character shines through. The finish is clean and lingering. I've already ordered another bottle. Excellent work from Mikkeller Spirits.
