Central Avenue Sling

Amaro Arancia, Amaro Artemisia, Empirical Dry Gin, Giniferous Gin

This gin-based sling takes its influence from the Singapore Sling. With its origins in the late 18th century, gin slings are traditionally gin that is sweetened, flavored and served cold. This PostModern Spirits version features a split base of 2 gins – the Citrus-Forward Giniferous & the Stronger, more Juniper-Forward Empirical, and 2 amari – the Orange-centric Amaro Arancia & the wormwood bittered & botanically driven Amaro Artemisia.
