The award-winning Schaffhauser Gin from Falken.

This Swiss Gin 82 from the Falken brewery in Schaffhausen has already received a number of awards. It is filled in a square, elegant glass bottle with a simple design.

In addition to juniper, soft botanicals are used as ingredients in Gin 82. In addition, the spirit contains not only citrus fruits, but also aromas of lavender, pepper and chamomile. The Falken brewery itself defines gin as straightforward, honest and impressive. The bottle shape of the Gin 82 is also noticeable. It is filled in a square bottle. This is optically kept very simple. In the front, the number 82 is medium-sized and the name addition of the spirit is clearly smaller on the edge. The closure is made entirely of plastic, but this is not visually noticeable. With the bottle, the overall picture is definitely successful. The restrained look is very elegant. It is also outstanding that the bottle shape is something very special and is only used by a particularly few providers.

As for the smell of Gin 82, juniper prevails. It is followed by a somewhat floral aroma, which brings a spicy and a fruity note with it. You hardly feel the alcohol. The taste of Gin 82 is much stronger and spicier. Here you primarily perceive notes of pepper and juniper, followed by the subliminal citrus taste. The alcohol is much more present here, but completely in harmony with the rest of the flavors. The aftertaste remains quite long on the palate. Juniper and pepper also dominate here.
