Fuckoff Gin Blue Dry Gin

Behind the deliberately rude name sits a perfectly straightforward dry gin from the Krugmann house in Germany. The hook is visual: a bright blue tint that survives mixing, so a splash of tonic gives you a drink that genuinely turns colour in the glass. Underneath the showmanship is a classic, clearly structured spirit.

The nose is fresh and lightly spicy with dominant juniper over a subtle citrus lift; the palate keeps that classic dry character, juniper and citrus balanced by a hint of herbs. It finishes dry, faintly spiced and refreshing. Pour into a gin and tonic with a dry Indian tonic and a slice of orange, and let the colour do the talking.
