Citadelle - Citadelle Gin - 70 cl

The gin distillery in the Citadelle of Dunkirk was founded in 1775, and was in fact the first to bear the title of Royal Distillery. Today, Citadelle gin is produced in south-west France, where it is distilled in small copper pot stills heated over an open flame. The knowledge has been handed down over five generations, bringing to the market a refined, elegant and complex gin. Citadelle is the first gin distilled in copper Charentais stills. Its progressive infusion method is also unique: each of the 19 botanicals in the recipe is added at different times during a 4-day maceration, while the alcohol strength is gradually reduced. A true piece of master craftsmanship, aimed at preserving the organoleptic qualities and capturing the ultimate fragrance of every berry, every spice and every citrus fruit. - Origin: France - Nose: Delicate aromas of fresh flowers supported by more pronounced citrus notes. More intense, herbaceous notes of juniper and aniseed emerge, then the spicy side of cinnamon softens the nose, bringing a very gourmand dimension to the gin. - Palate: On the palate, the juniper gives way to a voluptuous, long, spicy fragrance.
