COCKTAIL RECIPES

Experience the full flavour of our barrel finished gin, Campfire Cask Aged, by serving it neat over ice – taste the citrus and piney juniper softened by vanilla, caramel and soft fruity notes. Our recommended before dinner drinks featuring Campfire Cask Aged Gin are the Ember Negroni and a Gin and It meets a Manhattan – the Fireside Manhattan. Both are simple, easy to make classic gin cocktails that can be batch-made in advance of your dinner party.

A more complex gin cocktail in both flavour and ingredients is The Tally Man as created by bartender Ryan Puckett. We’ve adapted the original recipe slightly to use Campfire Cask Aged Gin and Bitter Union Lemon, Hop & Herb Bitters which when combined with banana liqueur where the bananas are soaked in brandy, dark crème de cacao and a glass rinse of absinthe makes just the best gin cocktail!
