Hangar One Hangar One Kaffir Lime Vodka NV 750ml

Translucent, with minor sediment. The acute citrus-lime intensity of the bouquet is unlike anything I’ve experienced in 13 years of spirits evaluation; the aroma slaps you in the face, forehand then backhand. The keen limey tartness at palate entry makes my face twist; the midpalate is intriguingly sweet and sour. Aftertaste is intense, but managebly citrusy-limey and tart. For the ultimate Vodka Gimlet.

Paul Pacult, editor of the Spirit Journal, was the first to receive samples for review. He wrote that the intensity of the Kaffir Lime bouquet was more acute “than anything I have experienced in 13 years of professional spirits evaluation… one of the two or three most spectacular I know of.” He called it “exhilarating,” “incredible,” “Intriguing” and gave it his best ranking, 5 Stars.
