RARE AND RAREST DRY GIN DRINKS
How much can just one change in ingredient change our Rare Dry Gin? A lot it turns out.
Our original Rare Dry Gin is made with nine signature botanicals, plus fresh organic oranges that we slice in half and steam in the botanical basket. And its those fresh oranges that make Rare Dry Gin so special, aromatic and downright delicious.
So what happens when we switch our trademark oranges for tangy cumquats or fresh green bergamot? We end up with two distinctively different but equally delicious variations on the original, named Rarer Dry Gin and Rarest Dry Gin (these are scarce citrus, highly seasonal and in very limited supply). Serve them in a fresh take on a timeless G&T or mix them up in a classic gin cocktail with a twist.
