Adnams Smidgin
From: Adnams plc
It might look small, but Smidgin is mighty in flavour, as it is made to do more with less. It’s a gin for making a low alcohol G&T, but it’s actually packed with 10 times the botanicals for big gin flavour. It’s distilled in the same way as all Adnams gins, but Adnams increase the intensity of its six-ingredient recipe, so all you need is a Smidgin with your tonic for a full-flavoured, low alcohol G&T.
