Sip, savour and stir: master mixologist Sebastian Rodriguez shakes up Juniper Moon's gin-pairing event
Master mixologist Sebastian Rodriguez is thrilled to be showcasing his skills at the Juniper Moon gin-pairing event in Cape Town.
'I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's reaction to the drinks and how they pair with the food,' he said.
Master mixologist Sebastian Rodriguez promises attendees at the Juniper Moon exclusive gin-pairing experience in Cape Town 'a journey of flavour through simplicity.'
At the event, which will be held at Auslese by Aubergine in Cape Town on Thursday night, Rodriguez will create delicious gin creations to pair with cuisines cooked up by former Masterchef Australia runner-up Ben Ungermann and the restaurant's chef, Harald Bresselschmidt.
The mixologist believes that the popular alcoholic beverage pairs well with food because of how well-rounded the gin is.
'Richer and more decadent foods pair better with this gin, as the Juniper Moon notes help neutralise the fat but also bring out the flavour of the dish.'
He added that 'something light and fresh' can also be enjoyed together with the Juniper Moon Gin.
'It is a very easy drinking gin, so it will blend very nicely with something lighter.'
