Why We Choose Conniption Navy Strength Gin for Our Signature Espresso Martini

At The Roof at Park South, we pride ourselves on crafting cocktails that push the boundaries of creativity and flavor. When it came time to select a gin for our signature Espresso Martini, we knew we needed something extraordinary—something that could stand up to the bold richness of espresso while adding its own unique flair. Enter Conniption Navy Strength Gin, a spirit as fierce as it is refined. For our Art of the Cocktail class on October 22nd, we’re excited to showcase this exceptional gin as part of our award-winning espresso martini lineup.

The Bold Flavor of Conniption Navy Strength Gin

Conniption Navy Strength Gin is unlike any other. Known for its strength and vibrant flavor, this gin storms onto the scene with confidence, thanks to its innovative two-step distillation process. The result is a spirit that is both bold and silky, perfectly suited for cocktails that demand complexity and balance—like our espresso martini.

What sets Conniption apart is its meticulous blend of botanicals. Traditional juniper is joined by Indian coriander, caraway, rosemary, bay leaf, and cardamom, all carefully selected to stand shoulder to shoulder in both aroma and taste. The finishing touch? A surprising infusion of sweet citrus and fig, which brings an aromatic, vibrant quality to the gin. Vacuum-distilled at room temperature, this final element introduces a delicate sweetness that lingers on the palate, offering a balance of warmth and subtle intrigue. It’s this kind of innovation that makes Conniption Navy Strength Gin the perfect foundation for our signature espresso martini.

Why Conniption is Perfect for an Espresso Martini

An espresso martini demands balance. The deep, bold flavor of espresso needs a spirit that can hold its own without overpowering the delicate coffee notes. Conniption Navy Strength Gin delivers just that. Its robust botanicals, combined with the surprising sweetness of citrus and fig, complement the rich, roasted flavors of espresso while adding a layer of complexity that makes each sip a discovery.

The gin’s higher proof, characteristic of navy strength spirits, ensures that its flavors remain prominent even when mixed with strong espresso and other ingredients. The result? A cocktail that’s both smooth and bold, with the perfect marriage of gin’s herbal complexity and espresso’s deep, roasted richness.

For those who love experimenting with cocktails, Conniption Navy Strength Gin opens up endless possibilities. Its bold profile makes it the ideal spirit for creative variations on the classic espresso martini, and it allows us to push the boundaries of what this beloved cocktail can be.
