Characteristics:
Premium gin made of juniper as "quintessential ingredient of gin" of course, with cucumber, coriander and rose petals.
Food pairing:
This gin is great on its own, but is also suited for cocktails. To subdue the floral notes and accentuate the savory coriander and juniper, you can add a sodium ingredient, like an olive. To enhance the floral notes, add a citrus twist. Additionally, lowering the temperature lessens the floral notes while emphasizing coriander.
