Thomas Henry Tonic Water is so good because of its high quinine content and slight floral citrus aromas. The cinchona bark’s bitterness is perfectly balanced by the fruity-sweet aromas of the citrus fruit. Thomas Henry Tonic Water is a refreshing taste experience and perfectly pairs with every gin.

The first Gin & Tonic was probably made sometime in the early 19th century. It was not invented at the bar though, instead it came to fruition in the British tropical colonies where heat, humidity, and mosquitoes made malaria a constant threat to local sailors. Which is why they began to add quinine to their soda water. This was extracted from the South American cinchona bark, a remedy for malaria at that time.

And so, tonic water was born! The Navy even mandated that their marines to drink it. In order to make the bitter tonic water more enjoyable, the soldiers first added sugar and then gin. Which is how the Gin & Tonic was born: the king amongst long drinks.
