(18 Mar 2022, 11:18 +07)  British Airways customers flying between the UK and US, as well as on all other long-haul routes, will soon be able to enjoy Aviation American Gin as part of the in-flight menu.

Short-haul passengers will be able to buy the gin from the on-board Speedbird café.

Aviation American Gin was founded in Portland in 2006. The gin is infused with a blend of cardamom, coriander, French lavender, anise seed, sarsaparilla, juniper and two kinds of orange peel to create a smooth and refined gin.
