Canton: It’s like drinking the red pill

Nectar of the gods
Rui Esteves from Brewers & Union is a sneaky chap. He just knew the words “this stuff is a guaranteed panty-dropper” would catch our undivided attention.
From the ribbed, frosted-glass bottle to the hardcover recipe book that comes with it – every single minute detail of this drink as been thought about by its crafter. To put it plainly – it’s a ginger-flavoured liqueur that’s light, yet packs an upfront fruity, ginger tone that wouldn’t be out of place on the set of Eyes Wide Shut. It’s sweet, yet smoky. It dances on your tongue in a satin-laced robe while wearing stilettos and armed with a silver-plated under-over shotgun.
But that description is like calling a Bugatti Veyron a sportscar.
If you drink it on the rocks, or poured into a glass of Champagne you can never go back to the reality that you perceived your life to be before it passed your lips. Panty-dropper? Damn right!
