Making A Smokey Gin With Paprika, Sage, Lemon & Earl Grey Tea

Last week I made Odins Easy Gin, this week I wanted to do something a little out there and different. So let's make a more savoury slightly smokey gin with paprika, sage, lemon and earl grey tea. Here is the recipe: 1L 43% abv neutral (I am using Birdwatchers) 14g of Juniper 3g of coriander seed 2 strips of orange zest 1/2 a small lemons zest 1/4 teaspoon of smoked paprika 6 large, fresh sage leaves 2 cracked peppercorns 3g of loose leaf earl grey tea Macerate for 24 hrs then slowly distill on the botanicals. Discard 1mls and collect the next 400ml Proof down to 40-45%abv and let it sit ( ideally for a week).
