History
The Gin Tonic is a child of the British Empire. In the 19th century, British soldiers and colonial officials in India drank quinine-containing tonic water to protect against malaria – the bitter drink was made more palatable with gin. What began as medical necessity evolved into a global classic. Today, Gin Tonic is more than a drink – it's its own category with endless variations.
Taste Experience
The first sip is crystalline and refreshing. The botanical aromas dance with a pleasant bitterness. It's a drink of elegant simplicity that never gets boring. Perfect for long summer evenings.
Fun Fact
The quinine in tonic water makes the drink glow blue under UV light! That's why Gin Tonic looks so cool in clubs with blacklights.
