Recommended tonics
1 - 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.
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 - Boreal tonic
Boreal tonic
With boreal tonic, it is best to use a woody / forested gin or an herbaceous gin. Boreal tonics bring an additional woody / forest flavor to the gin with flavors of spruce and juniper present in these tonics.
Recommended garnish: Lemon or orange slice.

"Aging is a science that we are always perfecting. The barrels chosen to make this product come from a rare line of distilleries which produce Canadian whisky. The barrels are soaked for 1 week in water before filling them with gin, as to not completely lose the taste of Radoune.
The barrels are 15 years old made of amercian oak. they are handpicked to ensure the quality is to the standard of the product we put in them."
