WHAT IT'S LIKE

It's like a gin and tonic, obviously. This will be familiar to our UK customers, but not necessarily to those in the US, who have less cultural heritage. To cut a long story short, we invented as a way to make antimalarial quinine taste better. So think of it as a medicine.

JAMES' TASTING NOTES

Don't mess about with this. Just use light tonic and plenty of ice. The orange slice brings out the sweetness of the parsnip.

I had an idea for a gin that is very British, using parsnip - which reminds me of dampness - combined with the spicy sparkle of the Asian spices found in Indian food. So we created the unimaginatively named Asian Parsnip - celebrating both the homely character of that most English of root vegetables and the warming stimulus of spices from the Indian subcontinent.
