Drink In’s #ShotofKnowledge : Absinthe

What We’re Drinking this week:
A new favourite in house, @BobbysGin Jenever has the strong juniper profile that makes this style so intriguing, along with rich malt flavour & a subtle hint of spices.
We’ve been playing around with it as a replacement for Gin in the classics!
