Description
Bully Boy's Merchant Gin is a remarkable expression of New England's spirit infused with the classic appeal of gin. Hailing from Massachusetts, this gin delivers a nuanced botanical profile that artfully combines traditional juniper with a refreshing citrus zest and a hint of warming spice. The result is a gin that is both familiar and intriguing, inviting exploration across a range of cocktail applications. With an ABV of 44, Merchant Gin offers a robust foundation that stands up beautifully in mixed drinks. Its citrus notes shine in a classic Gin & Tonic, where a simple garnish of lime or a sprig of fresh rosemary can enhance its bright, crisp character. For a more adventurous twist, try it in a Negroni, where its spicy undertones complement the bittersweet harmony of Campari and sweet vermouth. When serving Merchant Gin, consider using a highball glass filled with plenty of ice to maintain its refreshing qualities. This gin’s complex profile also lends itself well to a Martini, where chilled simplicity allows the botanicals to take center stage. A subtle lemon twist or an olive can be the perfect finishing touch, emphasizing the gin's citrus and savory elements. Merchant Gin's adaptability makes it a desirable choice for both cocktail enthusiasts and those who appreciate gin's classic appeal. Whether you're crafting a Tom Collins with a squeeze of fresh lemon or experimenting with your own creations, this gin promises to be a versatile ally in your spirit collection.

Interesting flavor, definitely not your basic gin. Made negronis with it and they were solid. Would probably buy again if I want something local.

First had Merchant Gin at a friend's place in Boston, went back the next day to grab a bottle for myself. Stands out in a G&T, bit of citrus comes through but still tastes classic.
