SiWu Rose Hip Gin

The soft floral character of SiWu Rose Hip Gin is balanced by the sharpness of the rhubarb in the twist on the classic French 75. Pour 45 ml of Rose Hip Gin, 20 ml of fresh squeezed lemon juice, and 15 ml of rhubarb purée into an ice-filled shaker, and shake it all together well. Strain into a chilled champagne flute and top with chilled champagne, then swirl a ribbon of rhubarb into the flute to garnish.

The rose hips give the gin a delicate, fresh, floral character, with a wisp of perfume in the nose. Juniper, coriander seeds, and lemon and orange peel provide the backdrop for the rose hips and rose hip petals to bring their own fragile personalities to the forefront without overpowering them, resulting in a light, clean, pure gin with an original Nordic twist to it.
