Hendrick's
Sunspell
Specification
Bottle — 1000 ml
No tasting record in the catalogue yet, so read it by the name: Sunspell points to citrus and warmth over a Hendrick's frame — juniper kept soft, floral rather than piny, faintly green. At 43.4% it carries more weight on the palate than the standard bottling, with a dry, peppery finish.
Serve — suggested, not sourced
Tonic — Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic, 1:2 — the floral tonic follows the Hendrick's style rather than fighting it
Garnish — A wide strip of grapefruit peel, twisted over the glass
White Negroni
gin · gentian aperitif · blanc vermouth · grapefruit
Stirred over ice, grapefruit peel.
Why this gin — The extra 43.4% ABV of this Sunspell bottling holds its shape against Suze and vermouth, where the softer standard Hendrick's gets buried.
