The Ultimate Cocktail Companion

• The Navy Negroni: The "spicy kick" and high proof of Colombo Navy Strength are specifically designed to punch through the bitterness of Campari and the sweetness of Vermouth. It creates a Negroni with unparalleled depth and character.

• The Robust G&T: Use a slightly higher ratio of tonic or a Mediterranean-style tonic to allow the menthol and ginger notes to shine without being overpowered. Garnish with a crack of black pepper and a lime wedge.

• The Gimlet: The extra botanicals and higher ABV provide a sophisticated, savoury edge to a classic lime Gimlet, balancing the sharp citrus with herbal warmth.
