Mandarin Ginger Gin Fizz with Four Pillars Rare Dry Gin April 3, 2022

I recently came across Singapore based food blogger Sarah Huang Benjamin's show Must Try! Asia. I found this show on the Discovery Plus app. Sarah has on her Instagram page a recipe for a delicious sounding cocktail for this past Chinese New Year called the Mandarin Ginger Gin Fizz. You can see the reel at the bottom of the post for the ingredient list and how to make the cocktail. 

What drew my curiosity was the brand of gin that she used for the cocktail. Sarah uses a brand of gin called Four Pillars Rare Dry Gin. I've never heard of the Four Pillars brand so I decided to do a little hunting. 

Started in 2013, the Four Pillars Distillery is a small distillery based in Australia that is known to make some real unique kinds of gin. on their homepage is a listing for their newest gin, the Fresh Yuzu Gin. Looking at their wares they have a Pink Dry Gin, Bloody Shiraz Gin (steeped with Shiraz grapes,) an Olive Leaf Gin, a Spiced Negroni Gin, a Spiced Trade Gin inspired by the spices of India and for the basis of this post the Rare Dry Gin.

The Four Pillars Rare Dry Gin is the first gin created by the Four Pillars distillery. This gin clocks in at 41.8 abv and has a flavor profile composed of  orange, star anise, Tasmanian pepperberry and lemon myrtle among its botanicals.

To read more about the Four Pillars Rare Dry Gin, I recommend you read the review for it by From The Gin Shelf entitled Four Pillars Rare Dry Gin Review dated June 30, 2019. The Gin Is In website also has a review of the Four Pillars Rare Dry Gin.

And here is the video for the Mandarin Ginger Gin Fizz. 

 

Let me know what you think of it after you whip a couple of them up.

Until Then May You Have Some Happy, Safe and Responsible Drinking,
