Gin's light botanical spice combines with rich orange and complex vinous notes from the combination of wine and dry vermouth.

A very sophisticated and more of a feminine cocktail. Light floral flavours with a warm after kick. Deceptively strong so keep it to two maximum if you ladies don’t want to lose decorum!
