EARL GREY GIN COCKTAILS

A singularly fresh and surprisingly sippable gin.  Artfully distilled with the finest Earl Grey tea and bright bergamot citrus peel.  A fragrant aroma beckons, as your palate embraces richly smooth and lingering black tea flavours. Sip as a stand-alone spirit or try it in your favourite cocktails. We think it mixes particularly well with lemon, honey, mint, club soda or tonic.
