This January, we are flipping the script on abstinence. At Union Square Wines, we believe in the philosophy of M.I.N.D.—Moderation Is Not Dangerous. You do not need to empty your glass to start the year fresh; you just need to fill it with intention. Join us for a special tasting that proves you can lower the proof without lowering your standards.
We are thrilled to pour Second Sip London Dry Gin, a trailblazing spirit crafted right here in Brooklyn. Born from a desire to redefine the cocktail hour, Second Sip captures the resinous soul of a classic London Dry at a mindful 20% ABV. The distillers achieve this through a rigorous small-batch process, utilizing a higher concentration of ten distinct botanicals—including bergamot, bitter orange, and almond—to ensure the flavor remains bold. To combat the lack of texture often found in low-alcohol spirits, they ingeniously incorporate organic juniper CO2 extract, umami-rich seaweed, and a pinch of Maldon sea salt. The result is a gin with a silky, satisfying mouthfeel that rivals full-strength spirits.
This tasting is your opportunity to experience a "Not So" Dry January that feels celebratory, not restrictive. Second Sip was developed specifically to anchor a Martini, offering the structure and depth you crave with half the alcohol. Come discover how one perfect cocktail can magically become two, allowing you to linger longer over the conversation.
Stop by the tasting table to sip, savor, and see why moderation tastes so good.
