Looking for a sophisticated and flavourful alcohol-free alternative? Look no further than Warner’s Juniper Double Dry 0% Botanic Garden Spirits. This innovative spirit, crafted by the award-winning Warner’s Distillery, delivers a complex and refreshing taste experience, minus the alcohol.

Aromatic Adventure: The Nose

On the nose, Warner’s Juniper Double Dry opens with a burst of fresh, herbaceous notes. The unmistakable aroma of juniper berries takes centre stage, reminiscent of a summer stroll through a pine forest. This is complemented by subtle hints of rose and lavender, adding a touch of floral elegance. A surprising dash of pink peppercorn adds a touch of piquancy, hinting at the depth of flavour to come.

A Symphony of Botanicals: The Palate

The first sip of Warner’s Juniper Double Dry is a revelation. The spirit is surprisingly full-bodied, lacking the thinness often associated with non-alcoholic beverages. The juniper takes the lead, offering a smooth, herbaceous character. This is beautifully balanced by a wave of citrus, with notes of lemon verbena and lemon thyme dancing on the tongue. Cardamom adds a touch of warming spice, creating a complex and satisfying mid-palate.

A Lingering Delight: The Finish

The finish of Warner’s Juniper Double Dry is delightfully long and layered. The initial burst of juniper fades to reveal a gentle warmth from the cinnamon. This woody note lingers pleasantly, leaving a clean and refreshing aftertaste.
