• A Belgian gin created by the Deluxe Distillery, with a name that harks back to the days of Prohibition.

• A blind tiger is another name or a speakeasy; a hidden bar where alcohol was served during prohibition. The door of the place would have a picture of a blind tiger and the tiger was given in the shape of a token exchanged for a free drink. This way, bar owners could bypass the strict prohibition laws.
