A lightly purple Gin of a complex harmony of aromatics.

Collective Arts is a sort of an artsy hybrid. They bring together the world of craft beverages and the talents of emerging artists around the world. How so, you ask? Well, they offer beverages from craft distillers in bottles, adorned with labels, created by emerging artists. The labels are limited works of art, but the Collective Arts folk make sure to pay just as much attention to the content of the bottles. Their mission is to pushthe boundaries of what Spirits can and should be all while still respecting tradition.

A small batch Gin, Collective Arts Plum and Blackthorn Gin immediately stands out with its light purple color. That’s not the only reason it’s so special, though. It’s crafted with botanicals that are infused both through maceration and vapor infusion and the long list includes juniper, coriander, green cardamom pods, black pepper, cinnamon, whole clove, ginger, mace, fresh lemon and orange peel, orris root, almond, blackthorn berries and plum. In terms of flavor, that translates to a complex harmony of aromatics, spicy, and fruity components. Oh, and it won Gold at World Gin Awards.

The label is the work of Nate Otto, an artist, illustrator and muralist from Chicago, Illinois.

Gin gets its dominant flavour from juniper berries. As with many other spirits, Gin was originally intended to be used as medicine. Yeah right!
As with many other Spirits, Gin was originally intended to be used as a medicine—to battle malaria.
Few Gin distillers make their own alcohol. Gin usually starts with neutral Spirit: A commodity that distillers buy in bulk. It’s what the distiller does with this commodity in the flavor-infusing process that makes each Gin different.
Classifications of Gin: London Dry Gin, Plymouth Gin, Old Tom Gin, Genever or Dutch, New Western or new American or International style.
London Dry Gin is not always from London. Gin does not have the same geographical restrictions as Spirits such as Cognac, Scotch, or Tequila. Only a tiny handful of London Dry Gins are actually made in the city.
While juniper-heavy Gin is perfect for your daily G&T, it is also complemented extremely well by tea flavours such as Earl Grey. Try steeping Earl Grey tea bags in Gin for an hour before mixing it with lemon juice and soda for a refreshing tipple. This one gets you additional kudos, so let’s keep it between us.
