Le Gin de Christian Drouin Carmina Small Batch France Gin 70 cl 42%

Le Gin de Christian Drouin Carmina Small Batch Gin France Drouin is known for making Calvados, which they do very well - but they can also make gin. It is made from a base of 30 different apple varieties that they also use for their Cider. Christian Drouin's Gin is based on neutral spirit blended with distilled apple cider. The distillate comes from 30 different apple varieties, some bitter, some bitter/sweet and some sweet. This gives a rich and full-bodied aromatic flavor.

The apples are harvested, pressed and fermented during the fall and winter. They are then double distilled in small copper kettles in the spring. This gives a delicate roundness and richness. The 8 spices are then macerated and distilled separately into the Gin before the final blending.

Rose petals and lemon peel for delicate flavor, Brazilian ginger, Madagascar vanilla, Indonesian cinnamon and almond to make Ginen soft, spicy and round, and cardamom to give a fruity and full-bodied taste.
