About this deal

The whole point of a Negroni is that the flavors are brash and bitter and hard to tame. But in this case, I think Artingstall’s actually does a pretty good job of pulling everything in line. What really helps, I think, is the licorice root component. It seems to add a bit of an earthiness that counteracts the bitterness of the Campari and really helps to bring balance to the glass. From there, you actually do get a hint of citrus and just a glimmer of juniper, which is honestly more than I usually get from most gins when mixed in a Negroni. Fizz (Gin & Tonic) My fave gin is Kyoto Distillery’s KI NO BI. I like the Japanese botanicals, which are a little more subtle and nuanced and not as juniper-heavy. This gin features yuzu, ginger, and Japanese peppercorn instead.” —Emmanuelle Massicot, Assistant General Manager, Kata Robata, Houston

Gin is hard to pin down, perhaps more so than any other distillate, as the wide range of ingredients makes it variously suitable for different occasions. But, I have a place in my heart for the versatile, award-winning Broker’s Gin. A micro-distilled spirit from a 200-year-old recipe, it’s prepared in copper pot stills by two brothers with a quintessential British sense of humor. Just look for the bottle wearing a little bowler hat.” —Chris Keller, Bartender, Osaka Ramen, Denver I’m really digging two Los Angeles gins: Astral Pacific Gin from Spirit Guild and Amass Gin, both of which are made in the Arts District.” —Steve Livigni, Food and Beverage Partner, Hotel June, Los Angeles The reason for such a beautiful bottle comes from Paul’s enduring passion for vintage glass. The design drew its inspiration from the ornate glassware and decanters from the ’50s and ’60s and clearly is an ode to the sophistication and glamour of that era.Feig noted that in America, people “think they don’t like gin, because everybody had a weird experience when they were a kid opening a bottle of Beefeater that put them off. Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA. It works only in coordination with the primary cookie.

One of my go-to gins right now is Artingstall’s London Dry Gin from director and producer Paul Feig. It’s a perfect blend of London Dry and New Western gin with a nice balance of juniper and citrus notes, making it super versatile. —Tobin Shea, Bar Director, Redbird and Vibiana, Los Angeles Hollywood is no stranger when it comes to gin, a certain red-suited superhero actor who is quite liberal with his inuendos and profanities has already shown this. However, that potty-mouthed Canadian actor now faces some very stiff competition, and it comes in the beautiful form of Artingstall’s Gin. One of the standout features of Artingstall’s Gin is the bottle it comes in. At first glance, minus the label, you would think it was a cut-glass/crystal decanter from days gone by and something that would take pride of place in an ornate glass-fronted walnut cabinet. As a result, Feig wanted to create an approachable gin, with the incorporation of citrus and floral notes “just kind of floating under the surface”.

Vulcan Gin

Method: Add all ingredients to an old fashioned glass. Add ice and stir. Garnish with an orange peel.

It still has that Juniper because I want it to be a gin, obviously, but just not have it be that slug in the face.” Artingstall’s signature serve is a Perfectly Brilliant Martini Just recently I was at somebody’s house and I was making Martinis and I asked my friend if she’d like to try one. She said ‘I literally can’t have gin’ and explained she had a traumatic experience in her past with gin that put her off.”For sure Beefeater. This is one of the absolute most authentic, classic expressions of London Dry that exists on the market. Beefeater is also much more affordable than other gins in the same category and is crazy versatile. Its botanicals are robust enough to stand up next to the lemon and honey in a Bees Knees, and is delicate enough to sip in a classic Martini.” —Drew Johnson, Head Bartender, The Musket Room, NYC Although Artingstall’s gin is a newcomer to British shores, it has already won over the palates of many across the pond following its 2020 U.S. launch. Since then, it has garnered numerous industry awards, including the Best of Show at the WSWA Spirits Tasting Competition and although new to the U.K market, it’s still managed to collect a Silver medal at the London Spirits Competition.
