Spirited Saturday - Gin & Gin Cocktails

Forthave BLUE Gin, 86 proof

BLUE is a botanical forward gin infused with 18 botanicals including juniper, angelica and mint. It is unfiltered so it will create a pearlescent effect when poured over ice or when mixed with tonic.

Bombay Sapphire Premier Cru Gin, 94 proof

A small-batch handcrafted gin, Bombay Sapphire Premier Cru celebrates Murcia's world-renowned citrus and is made with sustainably-sourced Murcian Fino lemons, mandarins and sweet navel oranges, hand-picked and hand-peeled from the late harvest. 

Nikka Coffey Gin, 94 proof

Distilled in Nikka Whisky’s signature “Coffey Still”, the rich and mellow spirit at the heart of this gin is characterized by a luxurious and silky texture. In addition to traditional gin botanicals, its stunning aromatic complexity relies on the refreshing burst of Japanese citrus such as Yuzu, Kabosu, Amanatsu and Shikuwasa, the delicate fruitiness of apples, and pleasantly tangy hints of Japanese Sansho pepper on the finish.

Junipero American Gin, 98.6 proof

The first of its kind, Junipero fearlessly led the birth of American craft gin in 1996.

Junípero is Spanish for juniper berry, the main botanical in gin. Hell bent on elevating juniper & citrus flavors, the distilling team forged a new path by crafting each batch of Junipero in a small copper pot still, scouring the globe for the most expressive botanicals, and boldly bottling at an unfiltered 98.6 proof.
