About Empress 1908 Elderflower Rose Gin
Empress 1908 Elderflower Rose Gin is a premium gin produced by DV SPIRITS LLC (in collaboration with Victoria Distillers), featuring a 42.5% ABV and a striking ruby hue from natural red rose petals and black carrot. What makes it special is its balanced floral profile—gentle elderflower sweetness, rose, lavender, and traditional juniper, citrus, and coriander—without artificial colors or added sugars, offering versatility beyond its visual appeal. Ideal for cocktail enthusiasts seeking sophisticated mixers or gin lovers wanting a floral twist on classics, it stands out in the gin category for its harmony, earning high marks like 90-95 from reviewers, unlike overly perfumed florals or gimmicky pink gins. Available in 750ml ($30.00) and 1000ml, it compares favorably as a well-rounded, flexible option for sipping or mixing.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
Hints of sweet spice like woody cinnamon, bold juniper, and rose hips emerge, with fruity red berry and orange peel notes. Floral elderflower, rose, and lavender build comfortably without overpowering. Coriander and subtle earthiness add complexity.
👅 Palate
Juniper and citrus lead with soft elderflower sweetness and bold rose-lavender evoking hibiscus tea. Mid-palate brings piney juniper, dry coriander, and gentle spice, balanced by berry-like rose petals. Rich, soft mouthfeel with subtle botanical richness and no added sweetening.
✨ Finish
Dry and satisfying with lingering florals, spice, and a touch of gentle bitterness. Smooth and medium-length without warmth.
