A cold snowy evening spent gazing at 18 inches of the frozen powder has me longing for summer and my favorite warm weather cocktail - an ice-laden tumbler of Bombay Sapphire and Tonic. The beautiful translucent aquamarine bottle containing that wonderful juniper berry infused elixir and the slight bite of those perfect floral finishing notes. Global Warming can't get here fast enough. Just leave enough ice for my tumbler. read more

A fun and unique experience. A bit of a haul getting out there but the trip was totally worth it. It's a lovely facility with plenty of trees around and even a stream that runs through the property. The environment creates an interesting intersection between human and nature, which felt even more prominent with the presence of the botanical greenhouses. During our time at the distillery, we went on the self discovery tour. It was a rather leisurely tour that took us on a journey through the history of the company and various buildings that make up the distillery. Eventually we made it inside the greenhouses, followed by a room that enlightened the senses with ingredients that make up the gin, and, finally, a guided tour of the copper stills. Best part was finishing the tour with a glass of gin cocktail made with fresh ingredients and delivered straight to the table. read more
