The West Winds Gin - The Sabre

On Dan Murphy's gin shelves I counted 73 brands..
How to decide.? Simple. Ask the experts.
I found that West Winds Gins, Sabre and Cutlass, had won prizes consistently internationally
and in Australia !
Not bad for a small production from South West W.A , Margaret River .
So what's different? What's it like?
The botanicals, mainly from WA give it a unique flavour. That's it in a nutshell.
It up there with the best Swedish Schnappes and Sardinian Firewater, known only to real connoisseurs.
Not for guzzlers.
I found it best straight as a starter like Scandinavian schnappes Then straight with fish or shrimps and salad .
If you insist on diluting it in cocktails, make sure you use top quality tonic. or vermuth.

Cracking gin, great for a south side or a G&T with a slice of lemon!
