Conniption American Dry Gin / 750mL

The aroma is delicate and lightly fruity with lychee, faint banana and grapefruit peel notes. But the palate surprises with a punch of spicy-peppery heat up front, mellowing to rosewater and lychee midpalate. There’s a pleasing cucumber sweetness before finishing on more sizzling cinnamon and coriander, with alcohol heat on the finish. 89 Points Wine Enthusiast
