Recommended tonics
1 - Aromatic tonic
Aromatic tonic
With aromatic tonic, it is better to use a very tasty juniper gin (richer and more robust). The aromatic tonics bring an additional flavor to the gin thanks to more spicy notes (ex: cardamom, ginger) but at the same time sweet (ex: vanilla).
Recommended garnish: Slice of cucumber or juniper berries.
2 - Cucumber tonic
Cucumber tonic
With cucumber tonic, it is better to use a dry gin. Cucumber tonics bring extra freshness to more traditional gins thanks to the more herbaceous flavors brought by cucumber. These tonics are also often lower in calories (like light tonics).
Recommended garnish: Grapefruit slice.
3 - Classic tonic
Classic tonic
With classic tonic, it is better to use a drier gin (London dry gin) but this tonic is suitable for any variety of gin. The classic tonics are the most usual and they bring a nice bitterness that perfectly complements the taste of all gins.
Recommended garnish: Lemon, grapefruit or cucumber slice.

"This craft gin, made from selected botanicals, captures the much sought-after character of a London dry gin. Authentic and refined, it draws its complexity from a skilful blend of flavours combining traditional aromatics, such as juniper berry, coriander seed, bitter lemon peel and angelica root, with the scents of Quebec’s wild regions. White birch shoots lend it a light minty note; pine nut, its roundness; wild raspberry leaf, a hint of bitterness; and Labrador tea, its woody character. This bold blend, smooth and gentle, adds persistence to the finish, helping make Cherry River Dry Gin a perfect expression of a product whose character is shaped by nature."
