Recommended tonics
1 - Citrus tonic
Citrus tonic
With citrus tonic (ex: lemon, yuzu), it is better to use a sweeter gin (ex: sloe gin). The citrus tonics bring a more bitter touch and an additional freshness thanks to the citrus fruits in these tonics allowing to balance the sweeter notes present in the gin.
Recommended garnish: Lemon or grapefruit slice.
2 - 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.
3 - Light tonic
Light tonic
With light tonic, it is better to use a more pronounced gin (ex: aged or juniper berry-based gin) but this tonic is suitable for any variety of gin. The light tonics bring the same traditional taste and the same bitterness as the classic tonics but they are lighter in calories thus leaving more room for the dominant flavors present in some gins.
Recommended garnish: Slice of grapefruit or orange.

"Refined and deliciously fragrant, Cherry River Lychee & Tangerine Gin offers a tasting experience pairing the sweetness, delicacy and seductive aroma of lychee and tangerine with the classic flavours inherent to gin. Undeniably satisfying, this spirit is distinguished by the bright and luscious presence of ripe exotic fruit and zesty citrus aromas, along with the subtle elegance conferred by juniper berry, coriander seed and angelica root, both woody and floral. Harmoniously balanced, its complex and smooth palate is expressed by its distinctive and vibrant oriental lychee flavour, as well as by the lingering hints of candied citrus peel on the finish. Cherry River Lychee and Tangerine Gin, the exotic appeal of a classic."
