Botanical: Sage
Sage has a long history as a culinary and medical herb. The small green leaves are covered with fine hairs and have been an important source of the incredibly aromatic oil which contains thujone, also found in wormwood and absinthes.
The flavor of sage is slightly piney, green, with a menthol and camphor aroma. In gins, Sage can come through quite strong; it doesn’t take much to make a gin taste like a sage bomb.
