Story
The Moment
Some drinks carry a bit more presence with them.
The Suffragette is one of those cocktails. It feels considered, steady, and quietly expressive—like a conversation that stays with you long after it ends.
There’s brightness here, but also intention. Citrus and gin come together in a way that feels structured rather than playful, thoughtful rather than loud. It’s the kind of drink that suits slower conversations and longer tables, where ideas move back and forth without urgency.
The Spirit Connection
Black Fox Canadian Gin provides a clean, botanical foundation that supports the structure of this cocktail without overwhelming it.
Crafted from spicy triticale, handpicked calendula flowers, and rhubarb grown on our Canadian prairie soil, its farm-to-bottle origin brings a grounded quality that pairs well with citrus and subtle sweetness. In the Suffragette, our careful blend of fifteen fruits, flowers, and spices acts as the steady centre, allowing the other elements to build around it with balance and clarity.
