Dry gin with a twist.  
 
It is rare when we can say a business is more than 300 years old. In 1693, Hendrick Steeman was granted a license to erect two Brandy stills in the Netherlands. This is the same business that we now call Wenneker Distilleries. Sure, it has changed ownership a few times, but Wenneker is still family owned and operated by the Van der Tuijn family who purchased it in 1903. Today, they have expanded the product line to include forty different specialty liqueurs and six spirits. 
 
Elderflowers have made a huge splash in the liquor world over the last few years. Elderflowers bring a fresh, pear-like flavour profile, with a hint of tangy citrus somewhere between a Meyer lemon and a ruby-red grapefruit. It is very refreshing and pleasant. First and foremost, Wenneker Elderflower Dry Gin is, indeed, a dry Gin. So you get those juniper berries, but you get plenty of elderflower and other spices too.
 
Wenneker stands on its own, but shines in a straight-forward G&T and a classic martini where its fragrance and texture will shine through. Again, delicate and clean are the order of the day, so we do not recommend that you waste it in a bath of onion or olive juice. It is especially good in a Vesper Martini, the James Bond classic where it dances gently with the potato Vodka, Lillet Blanc, and spiral of lemon peel … perfection.

Wenneker products are sold in more than 50 countries around the world.
As producers try to develop new styles and flavors of Gin, to push the category and find a niche, the need for trying new methods of extracting flavors, as well as using more unusual botanicals, has grown.

One such way is the vacuum distillation method, when the redistillation of botanicals takes place in a vacuum.
Juniper berry is the main ingredient of Gin. They are usually picked wild by independent workers throughout Europe and sold via distributors to Gin makers worldwide.
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.
How much Tonic is in a Gin & Tonic? The ideal proportions for a perfect Gin & Tonic is one part Gin and two parts Tonic.
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!
