One of the finest qualities about a Gin & Tonic is its versatile nature. This classic cocktail can be enjoyed at any time throughout the year and the flavor combinations are endless. We present to you: The Basil & Broadside, a savory, herbaceous and refreshing twist on the good ol’ fashioned G & T. The latest offering from The West Winds Gin is the Broadside Navy Strength, coming in at a whopping 58% ABV and chockfull of umami driven sea parsley and Margaret River sea salt. (Those crazy Aussies). Safe to say, this may be the world’s first salty gin, and it’s a delicious one at that!
