"Sixpence Gin & Jam" Cocktail at Tavern Law Lauded by Seattleite: "Signature Washington Flavors Combine with Deliciously Potent Results"

Congratulations to our team's talented Monica Buntha for this spotlight on her delicious cocktail.

"Every Seattleite knows how closely the smell of gin resembles the natural outdoor scent of the Pacific Northwest — junipers are evergreen, after all. Arguably, it’s the quintessential Seattle spirit — and thanks to Monica Buntha, it’s now part of the quintessential Seattle drink. The manager of Capitol Hill’s Tavern Law, Buntha created this sweet drink after a visit to Pike Place Market. 'After…drawing inspiration from seasonal produce, I put unexpected flavor combinations together to create a familiar cocktail,' she said."

2011 Must Drink List: Tavern Law Honored to Make Seattleites' List

The kind editors over at Seattleite let us know that the cocktails here at Tavern Law are some of the City's best. In fact, Ian Cargil's Monical drink has made the list of the five best.

They write, "Try these top five sip sensations the next time you hit the town. The colder weather calls for this surprising sipper. The drink begins with a firm earthy and peaty taste from the Ardbeg Scotch (cited on its web site as “perhaps the most peaty malt whiskey in the world”) and slowly changes flavor gears to a semi-sweet apple for the finish. An excellent starter drink for those looking to enter the world of scotch."

To take a tour of all five drinks, and to see the recipe for Ian's Monical, click on link above.

Thank you Seattleite.
