Gin · COCKTAIL GUIDE

Bramble

For someone who enjoys fruity, sour and fresh. What follows is a lean, light body with a moderate in strength centre. Duck is a sensible food match when you want to order it at the table. It rewards attention to the change from the first flavour to the finish, not only the headline ingredients. The index points toward Duck or Berry desserts at the table; Gin Gin Mule is the nearest place to continue exploring.
