MORUS & WATER, the purest way to appreciate the flavour of this gin.

Ingredients:
Morus LXIV -5/-7°C, 30ml
Harvey Nichols mineral still water 2/5°C, 30ml (added in thirds)
Glassware:
Whisky glass or tulip shaped glass, frozen
Ice: None
Garnish: None
Method:
Have a sip of the neat gin, then add the first 10ml of water, swirl, and sip again. Add the remaining water as you sip your way through the drink. The gin will become more flavourful as you keep sipping and diluting it.

MORUS MARTINI – our take on the classic bone-dry martini, we dilute the gin at 19% ABV. Gum arabic adds to the mouth-feel of the drink (so you can taste more), ‘stabilising’ and fixing the flavours.

Ingredients:
Morus LXIV, 30ml
Harvey Nichols mineral still water, 70ml
Gum Arabic, 0.1g (optional)
Ice: None
Glassware: Small martini glass or coupette, frozen
Garnish: None
Method:
Disperse gum arabic in cold water until fully dissolved. Combine with the gin into a sterilized bottle or jar and leave it in the freezer for a couple of hours (BUT NO LONGER) prior serving. Serve it at 0/-2°C

MORUS HIGHBALL, a delightfully refreshing drink with juniper and woody notes carried through the carbonation, fruity and savoury in the background. Based on the whisky highball, the perfect accompaniment to food.

Ingredients:
Morus LXIV -5/-7°C, 30ml
Harvey Nichols sparkling water 2/5°C, 80ml
Glassware: Thin Highball
Ice: Cubed, clear ice from pure filtered water
Garnish: None
Method:
Pour the gin into a think highball glass over cubes. Top up with sparkling water and mix gently so as not to break up the bubbles.

MORUS & BUBBLES, a twist of the classic champagne cocktail, but with no bitters in place here. The sugar cube increases the carbonation of champagne, which carries the more subtle notes of the gin through the glass; the flavour gets more intense as you sip the drink. Water is there to further stretch the flavour.

Ingredients:
Morus LXIV, 10ml
Filtered water, 15ml
Champagne, 100ml
Sugar cube, 1
Glassware: Flute
Garnish: None
Method:
Drop a sugar cube into a champagne glass, add gin, water and top with champagne. Mix gently.
