SPIRITS GINS OF DISTINCTION

LCBO 277044, $44.95

Plymouth Gin Produced at The Black Friars Distillery in Plymouth, England, since 1793, this beloved spirit—sometimes referred to as English gin—is made with only seven botanicals. It’s juniper forward with a resinous piney aroma that’s reminiscent of a Christmas tree. Its rosemary flavour is a knockout combined with nutty, briny fino sherry in the Tuxedo cocktail, a bone-dry Martini variation that was created at New York City’s legendary Waldorf Astoria bar in the late 19th-century. A dash of orange bitters wraps a bow around everything for a truly memorable drink.
