Connecticut Distributors, Inc. (CDI), in collaboration with The Industrial Cocktail Bar in New Britain, hosted a cocktail competition showcasing Hendrick’s Gin on Dec. 11. Six local bartenders met to make their best cocktails featuring Hendrick’s Gin for judges, with two winners named at the end of the night. The Popular Vote winner was Renee Strother, The Manhattan, with her cocktail, Not Your Army’s Bazooka Old Fashioned. The Judges’ Vote winner was Zach O’Brien, Max Fish, with his cocktail, Maroon 5. Hendrick’s Gin is distilled in Scotland with infusions of cucumber and rose. Launched in spring 2023, Hendrick’s Flora Adora Gin offers lush, green and sweet floral characteristics, lengthening the juniper and coriander backbone of Hendrick’s. The Hendrick’s Gin line is distributed in Connecticut by CDI and Brescome Barton.
