SENSORY PROFILE
Colour: crystal clear. Slightly smoky colour due to the infusion of natural herbs and distillation over a wood fire.
Bouquet: strong note of juniper, slightly citrusy aromatic herbs.
Palate: opulent with rich and full-bodied flavour, oily and dense, with the aromatic notes emerging only after a few seconds.
Spices and herbs come out in the finish. The use of extractions only in maceration and percolation, with very long persistence.
Serving temperature: 8-10 °C
Serving suggestions: on the rocks, to appreciate the fullness on the palate and the above-average olfactory intensity. Perfect for classic premium Cocktails or neutral tonic water for a classic Gin & Tonic.
PRODUCTION METHOD
Only and exclusively infused and/or percolated botanicals. Filtration is carried out cold, with no resins or synthetic material. We use no bleaching carbons. Small Batch spirits are produced with an 18th century copper still over a wood fire. It is a “one shot” gin, meaning that the botanicals are distilled with alcohol once only. The wild alpine botanicals are hand-picked in the Alta Langa and the Piedmontese Alps.
