Orange peels are used in quite a few gins and many have orange tones. The one with the most orange presence to it is Bluecoat, made in PA. An excellent gin.

For what it’s worth, my favorite Gin’s right now are Plymouth, Junipero (Anchor Brewing), and Bluecoat. Plymouth is the softest of the three and Junipero is quite the heavy hitter. I would also recommend more than a...

Quater Cask Single Malt Scotch Glenmorangie Single Malt Scotch- any of the wood finished like port, sherry, etc. Gin- Plymouth, Bluecoat, Old Raj, G’Vine, Broker’s, Zuidam, Juniper Green Organic, Miller’s High end...

I agree that they should be made with gin. I like to play around with several gins depending upon the mood. Tanqueray is an excellent classic London Dry gin, but sometimes you want a different flavor profile. Bluecoat adds a...

'm shopping for a newish bottling from PA called Bluecoat, but it doesn’t seem to be distributed in MA yet. Another variable to play with is vermouths, which are also getting more interesting. I personally love a boutique CA...

're in California you can usually find it at Trader Joe’s for just over $20. Junipero (by Anchor Steam) is intensely flavorful, and Bluecoat is definitely worth a try, but they’re in the same price bracket as...

a look. We may go to try it out at the weekend – if so I’ll report back. One other place I forgot to mention is the restaurant at the Bluecoat. We ate there a few weeks ago and had quite a good meal. They are clearly...

as the choice of gin: I prefer Vya, Boissiere, Noilly Prat, or Lillet Blanc (the last not technically a vermouth). For gin, Plymouth, Hendrick’s, or Bombay (Original, not Sapphire). Still waiting for Bluecoat gin to be...

We were in CT this past weekend and dined/drank at 116 Crown in New Haven. I had what they called a Belmont - bluecoat american dry gin, st. germain elderflower liqueur, rothman & winter creme de violette, soda – served on...

@ 116 Crown in New Haven, CT The Belmont bluecoat american dry gin, st. germain elderflower liqueur, rothman & winter creme de violette, soda – served on the rocks No idea what the ratios were but it was DELICIOUS,...

Most are available at Astor Wine an Spirits in NYC who do mail order. Depends upon where you are. Some like Bluecoat and South Shore are only distributed in limited areas.

Another disappointed diner. Potatoes in the steak frites were excellent (excellent herb seasoning), though the attempted rendition of the traditional paper cone was clumsy. Bar lacked Bluecoat Gin (it’s the local product!)...

years later. Well made and strongly flavored? Bluecoat, Aviation, Back River, Rehorst, South, North Shore No. 6, G’Vine, any Genever (Dutch malt liquor based gin, the original kind), and many more. Just start trying them,...

goes ok because the citrus matches with the quinine. Hendricks gets overwhelmed in a gin and tonic, and regular Tanqueray to me tastes best of the three in a GnT. I really like the musky, orange taste of Bluecoat gin. It’s...

I’m along with the rest of the crowd: good gin martinis are at ratios of 3:1 or 4:1. Instead of recipes, try some new gins!! Bluecoat Gin won the 2009 San Francisco World Spirits competition and is considered a...
