Reviews and Ratings

Matt Steeves - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Georgian Bay Gin is one of Ontario's newest craft gins, having only established in 2013, they've got off to a great starting having won silver medals twice at international competitions and quickly made its way to the top rail of many fine establishments. Made from malted barley, Georgian Bay Spirits Co. credits the source water (an aquifer in Elmvale, Ont. — said to be the cleanest water in Canada) for their award-winning spirits smooth mouth-feel and clean flavour profile.
I tasted Batch 16, bottle 1025, and couldn't agree more. Fresh, with sweet and aromatic botanicals, the Juniper berries and slight pine notes give way to a fresh sea breeze. Smooth and clean on the palate, with all elements in balance; no sharp edges on this beauty. A fantastic gin to mix with any cocktail. Why not try a Strawberry Basil Lemonade Cocktail or a Cucumber Basil G&T this summer. Cheers! Tasted July 2016. 92 points. Matt Steeves - www.quercusvino.ca

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
