KOVAL_2014 Gin 750

 

The weather, at least in New York, may not feel quite spring-like yet, but on this, the first day of the new season, we are feeling particularly hopeful that sunshine is just around the corner. And with the rising temperatures comes a lightening of many things: our mood, our wardrobe, and, most importantly, our cocktail preferences. So it is just in time that we’ve recently discovered the delights emerging from Chicago’s KOVAL Distillery. The boutique brand’s latest release, a superbly crisp gin with hints of coriander, juniper and rose hip, can boast both style and substance: pretty packaging that will earn it prominent liquor cabinet placement and a lovely, easy-drinking flavor. Sip it on its own or try it in one of these two springy concoctions courtesy of the team at the KOVAL distillery. FV
