When the summer sun shines I love nothing better than a refreshing aperitif. Up until now the choices have been pretty much limited to Pimm’s and Aperol but there's a new gin based contender on the market that's perfect for al fresco summer drinking and it's based on none other than Gin. The Wingfield is named after the 1870's pioneer of British Lawn Tennis, Major Walter Clopton Wingfield. The bottle is stunningly good looking with the unique twisted shape giving it a 1920's look. Award winning designers Stranger & Stranger worked with expert London blenders Pontoon to create the stylish 70cl bottle.
The Wingfield is blended to a secret recipe from a small batch London Dry Gin, cucumber, pink grapefruit, elderflower, bitter orange and ginger. It tastes like a garden at dusk - clean and fresh with complex layers of quintessential summer flavours. Serve chilled over the rocks or with soda water or sparkling wine (yup Prosecco, we're talking about you!) and an orange twist. Fresh and perfectly balanced with a dry finish. The Wingfield is stocked at Harvey Nichols stores and online www.harveynichols.com, Master of Malt, Hedonism Wines and The Oxford Wine Company, price from £30.00.
I have a 70cl bottle of The Wingfield worth £30 as a giveaway for readers of Foodie Quine.

ReplyDeleteWe all have our own recipes for Punch, but what brings the best out in them is to use fresh fruit, and liquidise the fruit with the rest of the ingredients; this makes for a better taste, and the fruit is distributed more evenly throughout the drink. Non-Alcoholic Punch is just as nice as Alcoholic Punch using the liquidiser.
