After doing the "Spirit of the Day" with Gillespie's Fine Spirits Lemoncello, I had a call to tackle more limoncellos in BC. I did a tasting way back in the beginning (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0t5CiuNfEc) but it was time for an update. So I did for the first weekly tasting that I have done in some time. Start by tackling some new buys, Moonshine Spirits Citrus Gin, Arbutus Distillery Limoncello, Tofino Distillery Limoncello along with some old favorites in Wood's Limoncello and the underrated Legend Distilling Manitou.

I tackle non alcoholic ingredients this week showcasing Lumette! non alcohol distillate and Phillip's Sparkmouth tonics. Pairing these two for a tasty non alcoholic alternative is perfect, the Lumette! adds complexity and the tonic gives body and texture. The big thing when you use these product is to understand what they are and adapt your style for them.
