Tasting Notes

Nose

Herbal and bittersweet, with dried fruit, old spice cabinet notes and a gentle oxidative character. Unmistakably vintage.

Palate

Complex and layered, with bitter herbs, dried citrus peel and a gentle vodka warmth underneath. The decades of bottle age have softened everything beautifully.

Finish

Long and herbal, with lingering bitterness and a dry, spicy close.

Expert Review

7/10

A fascinating piece of drinks history, this 1970s bottling of Pimm's No.6 Cup — the vodka-based variant — offers a glimpse into a bygone era. The spirit has mellowed and developed complexity over the decades, making it a collector's piece as much as a drinking proposition.

I was reading the tasting notes in the review and thought they sounded too good to be true for a vodka, but they're accurate. The with dried fruit is genuinely there, the Complex and layered delivers, and the spicy close is exactly as described. Served this at a tasting with friends last weekend — everyone was surprised how much character it has. We did a blind comparison against two other brands and this won hands down.
