DISH FOOD PAIRINGS

Hot Smoked Salmon and Horseradish Pâté
Seafood’s flavour profile complements the floral and herbal notes in our gin beautifully. If you’re looking for an elegant appetiser to serve with gin, our Hot Smoked Salmon and Horseradish pâté goes down a treat. It’s a quick put-together that can be served with your favourite crackers at gin o’ clock.

Spanish Tapas Platter
Herb infused cold meats are always a failsafe accompaniment for gin. The rich, salty and earthy flavours in cold meats mingle with the citrus undertones. Gin stands up to strong extra mature cheeses and the spirit can also cut through creamier goats cheeses and smoked cheeses. A well-mixed gin and tonic makes a refreshing drink to sip alongside a grazing board.

Steamed Mussels with Orange and Smoked Paprika Dressing
The large succulent mussels that live around New Zealand's shores are truly delicious. Steaming the New Zealand mussels in flavours like orange and smoked paprika is certainly one of the best ways to prepare them, especially when pairing with a glass of Good George Dry Gin.
