WHAT IT'S LIKE
This is like a Negroni, only much better, obviously, because it's based on James Gin. We could talk about it providing 'the structural backbone that ties the ingredients together', but that would be a) BS and b) wasting your time when you could be trying it for yourself.
JAMES' TASTING NOTES
A classic Negroni with a bit more going on. London Drizzle brings earthiness to the usually bitter-sweet mix of Campari and vermouth. The cherry adds some sweetness without turning it into a fruit cocktail, which is a drink for children.

London Drizzle
Gin wird traditionell als „London Dry“ bezeichnet – aber ich lebe dort, und normalerweise ist es nicht trocken. Also wollte ich einen Gin herstellen, der an diesen einzigartigen Petrichor-Geruch erinnert, der entsteht, wenn an einem warmen Tag leichter Regen auf den Asphalt trifft. Ich habe noch nie jemanden getroffen, der diesen Geruch nicht mag.
