A sapphire-hued Swiss Gin with a flavor profile that rings like a silver bell.

Deux Frères Dry Gin was launched by Gian and Florian Grundbøck. Florian is a food and beverage technologist, Gian is the business guy. Together the brothers decided to create a Gin to their own specifications, without compromise. It took a year and a half of experimentation in their small home lab using a small vacuum still to get it just right. Now that they have refined their product, it is made to their specifications at an historic distillery in nearby Tyrol, Austria.

Deux Frères Dry Gin begins with a traditional neutral Spirit distilled from fruit — basically alpine Schnapps distilled a few more times. It is then infused with a secret recipe of twenty-five botanicals. Yes, the list is mostly a secret. But they are willing to share a few of them, including organic juniper berries, fresh organic lemon peels, rose petals, lavender blossoms, angelica root, curcuma root, hyssop, and orange blossom leaves. Importantly, there is an unnamed botanical infused at the end that turns the Gin a light sapphire blue (they aren’t saying, but we suspect either Asian pea-blossom or gentian flowers). When mixed with tonic, the color changes naturally to a light fuchsia-lavender.

Smartass Corner:
Color-changing Gins are becoming popular. The effect is caused by various classes of phenol pigments in certain botanicals. These have one color in a Ph-neutral liquid and another when the mildly acidic tonic water is added.

Hardcore Gin lovers say the word Martini should never be preceded by Vodka, lobster, or pomegranate. They say the original and the only real Martini consists of Gin, Vermouth & olives, period!
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.
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.
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.
How much Tonic is in a Gin & Tonic? The ideal proportions for a perfect Gin & Tonic is one part Gin and two parts Tonic.
