Comans launches 6 O’Clock Gin and Tonic in Ireland
With the gin revival in full swing and the demand for new and interesting gin brands growing, Comans has introduced 6 O’Clock Gin and 6 O’Clock Tonic in Ireland. In fact, gin has reportedly enjoyed a 50% year-on-year increase in sales. The creation of family-run Bristol-based fruit liqueur specialists Bramley & Gage, the name ‘6 O’Clock’ refers to a great grandfather who was an inventor, engineer and gin lover who would settle down with a gin and tonic at 6pm each day for some inspiration.
The accompanying tonic water has been developed specifically to be paired with 6 O’Clock Gin, and is now also available in Ireland. The gin has hints of elderflower with bursts of orange and lemon citrus.
