Ungava Gin Review!

[@ihasashotgun]

Ungava is the go to Gin for Canadian students on the island of Montreal. Having said that, you should also try "romeo's gin" which is also from Canada (specifically Montreal). Very much Hendricks notes and not too over powering.

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Thanks ihasashotgun! I shall definitely try to find some of this 👍

[@christinecamley]

Romeo's Gin is superb!!

[@MNnytrorider]

I had several glasses of this in Quebec. It’s great. I live in Minnesota and my parents are driving up to Ontario. They will be bringing back 4 bottles lol.

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Wow! How long will they last you? A couple of days! 😉

[@MyPaulo1988]

My four year old son thought it was hilarious you saying daddy’s name on internet lol

Somehow as an Iranian/Canadian I am a gin lover, Do not know how but normally 90% of the drinkers in Iran they go with either vodka or whiskey without even having knowledge of how they got produced. I found Gin more complex in a way so that is why it is my drink of choice in weekends. Love the knowledge that you shire. i totally appreciate.

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Thanks for your message Pouria and welcome to my channel. So glad you enjoy my videos! 😊

[@pouria1972]

@@nononsensegindrinking5152 i follow every one of your reviews and i love them. i love gin.kind of beyond just drinking but you are the master it by far. very informative reviews. Keep up the good work

[@pouria1972]

Bobby you should try the spirit of york gin. it is canadian and it is fantastic.

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Thanks Pouria. I’ll check it out! 😊

Welcome to the tip of the Quebec gin iceberg! This region is booming with craft gin distilleries. Waxwing, Radoune, Romeo, Madison Park Breakfast gin, and so many others.

[@Lowlandlord]

Worth noting that not just Canadian, but Ungava is a northern peninsula of Quebec, closer to Greenland than Montreal. The writing on it is in Inuit btw, a Native language family (and tribe) with their own alphabet (the triangle things).

[@jeffwalker8044]

It’s an amazing drink. Noticed that when mixed with tonic it changed from yellow to clear.

[@AnneHogan]

Ungava is my go-to Canadian Gin... we drink it on ice (no mix) and if I could get "Breakfast Gin" (from Quebec) in Ontario I would put that up there as well but it's no longer available. Lovely Bergamot notes.

[@julia_cat6]

This is one of my favorite gins and I recommend it to other gin lovers all the time. I love gins with strong botanicals and juniper.

[@wrightju12345]

Was brave enough to buy a bottle of this.... naturally coloured gin. Very happy with it! Despite how it makes cocktails appear lol. Very powerful flavour. Welcome in this frigid month. Honestly the nose is something incredible compared to tanqueray. London dry in style, but very spicy and feels much higher proof than it really is.

[@KP-05]

It’s on clearance at the lcbo near my house for 33 bucks. I was curious to try it so after the video and reading comments ima give it a try

[@thomasdaly9776]

Another fun review! Thank you Bobby 😁

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Fleets McAppleton Thanks Fleets! 👍

[@davidbarlow9197]

I tried a Mickey of this a couple months ago. Agree completely, it's not bad, but definitely different with a strong punch.

[@alr.3137]

Try the Tanzanian Konyagi Gin - it's dead cheap and quite delicious (with strong cardamom notes)

[@nathaniel4135]

Sir, you must try Cherry River Gin. From Cherry River distillery in Cherry River Québec Canada

[@jsyj24]

If you get the chance to try another Canadian gin , try the 12km Gin. One of my favorites !

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

thanks Tommy! I will add it to the ever growing list!

[@hibiscusflower5911]

Tommy Delarosbil can I get it in Ontario?

[@mrlmontreal]

Montrealer here... not a huge fan of Ungava, but will give it another chance. PLEASE... could you review Cotswolds Gin? My absolute favourite and I cannot get locally. Thank you!

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Hey Michael Yes I’ve been meaning to get to Cotswold gin as I was born and grew up in the Cotswolds! I shall get some very soon! 😊

[@mrlmontreal]

@@nononsensegindrinking5152 With a slice of pink grapefruit :-) Make sure you are prepared :-)

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Michael Lefebvre Will do!

Vive le Québec tabarnak . un excellent gin 😮

[@nicolepreissl9792]

That taste/sensation/experience you're getting from this gin is the wild herbs and medicines used in the process. Labrador tea, in particular, is the smell that is very distinctive and there are some other ones in there as well. This is an Indigenous-owned and operated brand (as you can see they use Cree syllabics in the brand's name and all the ingredients are harvested by hand by native people in the north of Quebec, close to the tundra. What is amazing is that the herbs/medicines used are actually very beneficial to your health and have huge benefits from using them! Labrador tea, in particular, is amazing for health and it's so cool to see it in a gin! hope that helped fill you in a bit! :)

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Thanks for the info Nicole! Most helpful!! 😊👍

[@hibiscusflower5911]

Nicole preissl I just bought some from my LCBO in Ontario. Is the yellow colour natural?

[@frecklematt]

I am not sure where you got your facts from. The gin is definitely not Indegnous-owned. Those are symbols used in Inuit languages, not Cree. There is a lot of controversy surrounding this gin because many Inuit people felt that their imagery and livelihoods are being used to market the gin. I love gin but have never tried it for these reasons. You can read more here: www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ungava-gin-cultural-appropriation-social-media-campaign-1.3398599

Oi mate, you should review Ableforths' Bathtub Gin, Bathtub Gin - Navy Strength & Casked Asked Bathub Gin

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

All added to the list Gary!!👍

[@with_love2963]

You need to try Croatian Old Pilot's gin

[@MazzDamage]

Really love your channel and reviews! I hope to see a review of Roku gin by Suntory. Keep up the good work!

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

James Mazzella Thanks James! It was lovely to read your message and I will put Roku on the list of recommendations. The list is growing quite long though but don’t worry, I promise I will get to it! 👍😊

[@blumahou4281]

You need Roku in your life...Neat or ..paired with Fever Tree Ginger ale. .&ice my favourite way to have it. 😊👍

[@gergelygorcs8345]

I have a bottle, but I don't quite like it. It makes all tonics much bitter, even the very sweet ones. It has kind of a gin taste not extra junipery and something on top. I can not really tell you what this is but it is not that pleasent. Nor it is bad, but it definatelly does not worth to keep it at home. There is plenty of gins that are much better for the price.

[@garywong338]

Oi mate, you should do a review of: Ableforth's Bathtub Gin,

[@nononsensegindrinking5152]

Thanks Gary I’ll add it to the list 👍

[@jorgeisaacguerrero]

tried it. it was a birthday gift and tought it was disgusting. do not spend any money on UNGAVA. and I finished the whole bottle myself

[@Reed-Publications]

Ungava smells like bug-spray and tastes bland and uninteresting. There are far better Gins in Canada. =)
