Hastings Distillers Posy Pink Gin 700ml $75
I love the little picture of a posy (or tussie-mussie as my mate Kim calls them) of flowers on the label. I also love the font. Which, yes, exposes me for being firmly in the ‘appearances matter’ camp, but I do not care. Morganite-pink and diamond-bright, this organic gin bursts with citrus and redcurrant aromatics, buckets of spicy juniper, sweet mandarin and pink grapefruit flavours and tonnes of florals, Batch distilled in their 150L Arnold Holstein still and cut to strength with Kaweka spring water, organic raspberries and hibiscus flowers are added after distillation to give the Posy its delicate pink hue and subtle sweetness. Sip straight or serve long with tonic or soda.
