Citrus StrongFlavor

Gin Smash는 올드 패션드 글라스에 신선한 민트와 각설탕, 탄산수를 머들링한 뒤 진을 올리고 오렌지 슬라이스와 체리로 장식하는 클래식 칵테일입니다. Smash 카테고리는 Julep, Mojito와 마찬가지로 신선한 허브를 감미료와 머들링하는 것을 기반으로 합니다. 오렌지와 체리 가니시가 과일향 아로마 노트를 더합니다.

History & Origins

The Smash cocktail category was documented by Jerry Thomas in his 1862 'Bar-Tender's Guide,' making it one of the oldest recognized cocktail families. It was described as a smaller, more concentrated version of the Julep, typically featuring mint as the muddled herb. The Gin Smash as a specific recipe appears throughout early 20th-century American bartending literature.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: fresh muddled mint and gin juniper with a sweet sugar note and a fruity orange and cherry scent from the garnish. Palate: refreshing and herbal with mint's cooling effect, gin's botanicals, and the sweetness of the muddled sugar creating a balanced, aromatic combination. Finish: clean, minty, and botanical with a sweet citrus fade.

Pro Tip

Muddle the mint and sugar cube gently — just enough to express the oils without shredding the leaves, which can introduce bitterness — and use fresh sprig of mint as an additional garnish.
