Mystiqanna Amsterdam Gin

MystiQanna build their Amsterdam gin around an ingredient few distillers reach for: hemp fibres. The plant lends an earthy, herbal character without any THC, so what reaches the glass is purely aromatic, the bottle itself echoing the shape and structure of the hemp stalk. It is a deliberately controversial idea executed with restraint, the hemp folded into a traditional gin rather than allowed to overwhelm it.

The nose pairs fine juniper with earthy, slightly grassy nuances and a subtle herbal freshness. The palate is smooth and complex, classic gin botanicals and spicy juniper meeting light floral notes and a gentle hemp aroma, before a long, dry and elegant finish with a hint of herbs and pleasant spice. Build it into a modern G&T with a mild tonic and a twist of lime zest, or stir it into a Negroni.
