Now even James Bond can go gluten free

Serafina Shakes It Up With Monopolwa Potato Gin

If you happen to be an international super spy and you also happen to have an intolerance to gluten, where oh where are you supposed to get the perfect gin martini? Saunter up to the bar at Serafina and call for Monopolowa Gin. Triple distilled, from potatoes, this Austrian gin is not only smooth, herbaceous, and economically priced (at $7), it also brings the grain-fearing, gin-loving sophisticate a welcome pool in which to dip their olives.

As Celiac disease and allergies to grain are becoming more and more prevalent, it is exciting to know that having a potato-based gin opens up a much more fulfilling cocktail experience at Serafina for the gluten-intolerant. One of Serafina’s most popular beverages, the Elisir della Fiore, concocted by bar manager and mastermind Chris Bollenbacher, is a gin based cocktail mixed artfully with St. Germain and fresh grapefruit juice. The Monopolowa Gin is the perfect complement for the Campari in Serafina’s famous Negroni as well.

For those who may argue James Bond drank vodka martinis and not gin, Serafina has you covered. Monopolowa makes a potato vodka as well, stocked at Serafina and ready, for all your debonair needs.
