The new Sapphire East is vapor-infused with Thai lemongrass and Vietnamese black peppercorn, along with the 10 botanicals also found in the original Bombay Sapphire: almonds and lemon peel from Spain, coriander seeds from Morocco, juniper berries and orris (iris root) from Italy, liquorice from China, cassia bark from Indo-China, cubeb berries from Java, grains of paradise from West Africa, and angelica root from Germany’s Saxony region. The result is a distinctly peppery, citrus finish.

Ultimate Beverage Challenge 90 points (Mar 2012) Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2012. Restrained in style with moderated juniper, and a pleasing emergence of orris root, grains of paradise, cubeb berries and other subtle botanicals. Citrusy zip is backed with a slight and cleansing bitterness on the palate. |
