BussNo.509WhiteRainGin(700mL)

<p>Tastes like spring rain falling on a Belgian herb garden. </p><p><em>Serge Buss</em> opened his <em>first restaurant</em> at the age of 20 in his native Antwerp, Belgium. Coming from a long line of entrepreneurs and his passion for great-tasting, quirky cuisine translated neatly into crafting his own premium beverages. So he founded Buss Spirits and the<em> first Gin & Tonic ba</em>r in Belgium—Bar Bounce—in 2013. <em>In just a few years</em> this little distillery has created six different award-winning Gins, two premium tonic mixers, two limited edition liqueurs, and now a Rum. And it seems to us that Serge Buss is just getting started.</p><p>The third product to come out of Serge Buss’s Belgian Skunkworks is their gold medal-winning Buss No.509 White Rain Gin. And these guys are serious about their Gin, serving it <em>up at 50% ABV</em>. This makes a lot of sense since they are formulated to stand up to mixers and cocktails. The botanical mix is <em>straight-forward</em>—juniper, coriander, licorice, angelica, vanilla, cardamom, iris, orange, and lemon—but they spice up the flavor profile by adding <em>verbena and marjoram</em>. The result is like a gentle spring rain in an herb garden which, we assume, is the whole point.</p>
