Curious why this gin appears in so many recipes, including old and tested cocktails e.g Martini Special and Martinez with London Dry Gin (when Rutte is not London based). What is it that makes it so special as it’s new to me.
Just my .02 but I’ve tried a couple of the brands mentioned this way and haven’t been disappointed yet. Still looking for Rutte in New Jersey though :)
Rutte is one of the brands whose support makes this site possible. That said, we are very careful about which brands we work with. Rutte Dry Gin is very well made classically London dry styled gin that’s great in classic and contemporary cocktails. We’ve visited the distillery a couple of times and Myriam Hendrickx, its distiller, makes great gins and genevers.
