Four Pillars' Rare Dry Gin & Tonic is made with an extra-concentrated version of the brand’s Rare Dry Gin, double the botanicals and extra oranges to replicate a signature citrus garnish. The simple G&T promises to complement a variety of social occasions and its portable format makes it easy to take virtually anywhere—no cocktail glass needed.
To pair with the premixed beverage, the Australian distiller also created a bespoke tonic. Four Pillars was inspired by favorites from other brands like Fever-Tree and StrangeLove and set out to create just the right balance of sweet, sour and bitter flavors for its canned beverage. The first ready-to-drink product from the brand delivers intense flavor and 5.1% ABV.
