Pop-up gin bar on Maltby Street
Little Bird Gin is an independent gin distillery based in South London which produces small-batch London Dry Gin with natural ingredients and no artificial flavorings or colorants. The gin is made with the usual selection of botanicals but pink grapefruit, orange peel, and ginger give the 80-proof gin a nice citrusy aroma. I’ve never visited the distillery (in fact, I’m not sure if that’s even possible) but I did stumble upon Little Bird’s pop-up bar one fine Sunday morning in the Maltby Street Food Market. If I remember correctly, they had a menu offering up classics like Gin and Tonics or Negronis, but given that it was 11 in the morning we opted to try their Bloody Mary made with their craft gin, piri-piri hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, tomato juice, pepper, and lime juice.
