An unusual, exotic gin comprised of earthy-tasting Butterfly Peaflower, the tart and fragrant citrus of the Yuzu (which resembles a mix of grapefruit and mandarin) and Schezuan Peppercorn gives a gentle heat that is a kind of “floral-lime-lavender” with a citrus aftertaste.

Butterfly Peaflower is famed for as a powerful antioxidant that improve hair growth, follicles, and—not that Mike Crook cares about this—prevents the greying of hair. The Schezuan Peppercorn is good for bone health, which means you can pour more and bigger gin tonics.
According to Chief Spicer, Dick Boot, the perfect side dish would be a Middle Eastern tomato salad with pomegranate molasses dressing and covered with pomegranate seeds.
