Strong Classic

El Pink Gin es uno de los cócteles más antiguos de la historia naval británica, que consiste simplemente en ginebra con unas gotas de Angostura bitters. Se origina en la práctica del siglo XIX de la marina real británica de beber Angostura bitters con ginebra como ayuda digestiva y preventivo contra el mareo. La tonalidad rosada y la complejidad de hierbas y especias de los bitters se añaden simplemente a la base botánica de la ginebra.

History & Origins

Pink Gin has roots in 19th-century British Royal Navy medicine, where Angostura Bitters was used to treat seasickness and nausea and was mixed with the sailors' daily gin ration to make it more palatable. The practice of drinking gin-and-bitters became fashionable among the naval officer class and spread to British gentlemen's clubs and colonial outposts across the Empire. It predates virtually all other cocktail recipes that involve bitters.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Clean gin botanicals — juniper, coriander, and angelica — with the complex spice of Angostura Bitters and a blush of warm spice. Palate: Intensely spirit-forward and aromatic with juniper and botanical complexity dominating; the Angostura adds layers of gentian bitterness, cinnamon, and clove, with no sweetness or dilution to moderate the experience. Finish: Very long, dry, and bitter with a warming gin and spice echo.

Pro Tip

Swirl the bitters thoroughly around the wine glass to coat the interior evenly, shake out any excess, then pour the gin gently so it absorbs the bitters coating for a fully integrated flavour.
