Recommended tonics
1 - Mediterranean tonic
Mediterranean tonic
With Mediterranean tonic, it is better to use a citrus gin or a more herbaceous gin. Mediterranean tonics bring some subtle citrus and fresh notes (ex: thyme and rosemary). There are also smaller bubbles (similar to champagne) than in classic tonics, bringing a rounder and smoother flavor.
Recommended garnish: Slice of grapefruit or lemon and sprig of rosemary.
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.

"Distilled exclusively for Maison Livernois, the gin Jules-Ernest was thought on a terrace at the edge of the sea. It was composed with the sun in the heart and distilled by fire and copper. It has its roots in the cereals of L’Isle-aux-Coudres and its flight in the botany of the Mediterranean and Japan, the two lands of the Sun. His most beautiful dress? Ice, sparkling water and a slice of lemon in the sun!"
