Event: Calling all gin aficionados!!!

I don't know what reception I'm at, but for God's sake give me a gin and tonic.

-Denis Thatcher

An exciting event taking place this Saturday at 116 Crown in New Haven. One of the co-owners of the brand, Martin Dawson will be visiting from 5-8pm and treating all attendees to a cocktail made with their Broker's Gin!


A bit of background about their gin that I found on their website: "Creators Martin and Andy Dawson chose the image of a bowler-hatted gentlemen - an archetypal stockbroker - to reflect the fact that historically England is the home of gin. Broker’s is a seriously good gin with a quirky marketing approach. Broker’s Gin is made in a 200-year-old distillery in the heart of England using a traditional copper pot-still. The recipe is as old as the distillery. A quadruple-distilled pure grain spirit made from English wheat is redistilled with ten traditional botanicals, creating a gin of outstanding flavour and smoothness. Broker’s Gin does not follow the modern trend of using weird and wonderful spirits and botanicals. There are no oddball ingredients in Broker’s Gin. We believe our forefathers did an unbeatable job perfecting gin recipes over many hundreds of years. Broker’s Gin has won more top awards in international competitions over the last ten years than any other gin."
