The Perfect Serve
Menai Oyster Gin
Menai Oyster Gin is our distinctive Welsh coastal gin, created in collaboration with Menai Oysters and distilled in small batches here on Ynys Môn.
Fresh Menai oysters contribute a subtle maritime character and exceptionally smooth, rounded mouthfeel rather than an overt seafood flavour. Classic juniper and bright citrus keep the gin crisp and balanced.
A Gimlet is an ideal way to showcase that character. Fresh lime sharpens the citrus notes already present in the gin, while a restrained measure of sugar balances the acidity without hiding the subtle coastal finish.
