EMPIRE OF DREAMS COCKTAIL

This gin riff on the Empire of Dreams was inspired by the cocktail created by Fred Siggins at Melbourne institution Black Pearl.

Rich, deep and complex, it layers the robust espresso and caramel notes of Melbourne Laneway Gin into a fragrant, full-flavoured drink with a gently bitter finish. A proper late-night cocktail, made for slow sipping.
