Still Austin Naturalist Gin Quick Thoughts
Just had my first sip a few hours ago.
**Positives:** Its got a unique flavor of strong juniper, slate, lime, and orange.
**Negatives:** Its got that Texas burn that all Texas spirits do. Way too harsh.
**Overall:** Its not for me.
I kept in mind that they used to market “women owned” as a big pillar of their company. Which is not a red flag on its own, however, its always concerning when companies choose social issues as a hill to die on.
Anyways, the gin. If you like any sort martini, aviation, or more classical gin drinks… this is not it. This gin is way to floral, way to hot, and way too up front to be put in any sort of spirit forward cocktail.
