6 O’clock Gin Hazy Orange is the brand's latest expression that's crafted with the warm weather months in mind to help consumers easily shake up their favorite cocktail recipes with a touch of brightness.
The spirit follows on the success of elderflower, spiced orange and cranberry gins, and boasts the brand's gin as the base with hand-crafted orange essence to provide a bold burst of orange. The product maintains the natural oils from the fruit to help further enhance the flavor of the spirit as well as the mouthfeel.
