About that drink
The Raspberry Thyme Smash brings a special combination for a cocktail. If you only pay attention to the ingredients of this gin cocktail, you could assume an extreme sweetness. But gins such as Gin Luum in particular manage to find the perfect balance here. At the beginning the raspberries are the aroma driver, in the finish the thyme is dominant and makes the cocktail really interesting. The slightly dry character of the gin goes well with the cocktail. In the finish, it supports the thyme very well, without letting its own aroma come through too strongly.
