Makes a fantastic Gin and Tonic. Made with Fever Tree Light Tonic and garnished with a lemon wedge. The bold juniper clearly evident on the nose soundly shines through on the palate with the spicy Szechuan pepper influence showing itself on the finish, and expressing a touch of lemon juice and lemon oils from the peel on the surface of the tonic and then rubbed on the glass rim provides a lovely counterbalance of sweetness. This would also excel in a Martini (or better yet a Gibson) if you like your juniper to stand out -- stir it neat and serve up with a lemon twist; and it should stand up nicely in a Negroni (with the spicy pepper influence added to the bold juniper kicking things up to an "11" -- see Spinal Tap movie reference). Outstanding!
