James Gin California Dreamgin' 700ml

James Gin California Dreaming is a contemporary-style gin that leans toward citrus and sunshine rather than juniper austerity — the name is the brief. Contemporary gins keep juniper in the recipe but let other botanicals take the lead, and here that means bright peel and soft floral notes carrying the spirit. Expect orange and grapefruit zest on the nose with a herbal lift behind them, a palate of citrus, light florals and gentle spice over a dry base, and a clean, refreshing finish. Serve it with a light tonic and a wide grapefruit twist, or build it into a Tom Collins or a French 75.
