Ferdinands Gin

Two great spirits and wine families from Germany's Saarland region joined forces on a gin built around the Riesling grape. Ferdinand's is the result of an unlikely alliance between a distiller and a winemaker's daughter, and it tastes of both their centuries-old craft.

  • The world's first vermouth built on quality Riesling from Germany's Saar valley.
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-1972695

    Down on the slate slopes of the Saar valley grows a Riesling known across the world of wine. At Ferdinands, it takes on a whole new life as the base for a dry, herb-scented vermouth.

    Expert's Description

    Ferdinands Saar Dry Vermouth is a German dry vermouth made from Riesling from the Saar valley, bottled at 18% ABV. This dry vermouth from Ferdinands is the world's first vermouth infused with a distillery's own quality Riesling from the acclaimed German wine region Saarburger Rausch.

    Ferdinands was created through a collaboration between Andreas Vallendar, master distiller and owner of Avadis Distillery in Wincheringen-Bilzingen, and Dorothee Zilliken from the renowned wine estate Weingut Forstmeister Geltz-Zilliken in Saarburg. Avadis Distillery traces its roots back to 1824, and today Zilliken's Riesling from the classified slate vineyard Saarburger Rausch serves as the base wine for the vermouth. Regional herbs are added to the dry vermouth, including wormwood, which lends a cleansing bitterness to the floral aroma profile, resulting in a vermouth that's ideal for a classic Dry Martini.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Floral and mineral, with a touch of wormwood's cleansing bitterness.

    Palate

    Dry and herbaceous, with a distinct acidity from the Riesling and a light spiced warmth.

    Finish

    Light and elegant, with lingering mineral notes from the Saar valley's slate.

About Ferdinands Gin

Ferdinand's Saar Dry Gin is created by two major figures in Germany's Saarland region: distiller Andreas Vallendar of Avadis Distillery and winemaker Dorothee Zilliken of the Forstmeister Geltz-Zilliken estate. For newcomers it's a stylish, floral gin built around the famous Riesling grape; for collectors it's notable that the pair behind the bottle represent two spirits and wine-producing families spanning several hundred years combined, giving Ferdinand's a rare depth of craft tradition.

History & Background

The gin is named after Ferdinand Carre, an inventor known for early contributions to carbonation and refrigeration technology, a tribute to innovation the distillery aims to carry forward in its gin production.

Production & Style

The gin is distilled with a combination of classic botanicals and local Riesling wine from the Saar region, giving it a distinctly winy character unusual for the category.

Signature Style

Winy, Floral, Elegant
The flavor offers a floral, lightly winy character with a hint of citrus from the Riesling grapes.
