Hellfire Piquant Gin is a bold, pepper-forward gin built on a firm juniper backbone. It layers black pepper and chili peppers with classic gin botanicals—coriander, angelica, and orris—alongside bright citrus peels (orange and grapefruit) for lift. The result is a dry, clean profile with controlled heat that stands up to spicy and bitter cocktails. Best in spicy-forward serves: gin and tonic with lime, Negroni riffs, or a dry martini.
Tasting notes
- Nose: Juniper at the core, with black pepper and chili warmth; bright citrus peel; coriander and subtle herbal/backbone notes.
- Palate: Dry, crisp texture; juniper-forward with a pronounced pepper/chili bite; citrus oils brighten the middle; supported by coriander and angelica; restrained sweetness.
- Finish: Long, warming finish; persistent peppery spice and citrus zest fade to a dry aftertaste.
