COMMON GROUND Spirits | Gin, $39.99
Common Ground Gin is inspired by Julian's love for cooking and culinary programs, drawing influences from Top Chef, Chef’s Table, Beat Bobby Flay, and Chef Marcus Samuelsson's vibrant flavor pairings. The bolder of our two gins, Gin Recipe 02 combines the earthy fruitiness of black currants with fresh thyme, creating
an elegant and flavorful gin with a spicy finish. This small-batch craft gin presents lively citrus scents, a subtle sweetness from dried black currants, and savory thyme and herb notes on the palate, culminating in a lingering peppercorn finish. This gin can be savored neat, over ice, or mixed into your preferred gin cocktail, such as a G&T, Negroni, French 75, etc.
