Stranger and Sons 'Trading Tides' Coastal Dry Gin (Limited Edition) 700ml

A bold and evocative expression of coastal botanicals, Trading Tides is a collaboration between India’s Stranger & Sons and Australia’s Four Pillars, inspired by the rich flavors of both shores. This limited-edition gin captures the essence of the sea, with a distinctive maritime character and layered complexity.

Appearance:

Crystal clear, with a bright, slightly viscous texture that hints at its botanical intensity.

Aroma:

Fresh citrus bursts forward with notes of yuzu, finger lime, and lemon myrtle, complemented by herbaceous coastal elements. Underneath, there’s a delicate salinity, intertwined with juniper, native spices, and a whisper of umami from kelp and sea parsley.

Palate:

A vibrant and complex gin with an immediate citrus-forward profile, showcasing the brightness of Australian and Indian botanicals. The mid-palate reveals a rich umami depth, thanks to the seaweed and coastal herbs, balanced by warming spice from turmeric and pepper. The juniper backbone remains prominent, providing a classic structure with an innovative twist.

Finish:

Long and layered, with lingering citrus zest, gentle salinity, and a subtle peppery warmth. A sophisticated balance of brightness and savoury elements leaves an intriguing and memorable aftertaste.

Best Served:

• Classic G&T: Pair with a premium Indian tonic and garnish with fresh finger lime or grapefruit.
• Coastal Martini: Stir with dry vermouth and a dash of saline solution for a briny, elegant experience.
• Negroni Twist: Swap out traditional gin for Trading Tides to introduce a coastal complexity.
