Christian Drouin, known for his Calvados from Normandy, lets apple and juniper meet in this gin, where eight carefully selected botanicals give a spicy, floral complexity.
Expert's description
Le Gin de Christian Drouin Small Batch is a French gin from Christian Drouin, bottled at 42%.
The gin is built on eight botanicals: rose and lemon provide delicacy, ginger, vanilla, cinnamon and almond give the gin a smooth, spicy body, while cardamom enhances fruitiness and roundness. Juniper and apple complement each other with their heavy and high notes.
The apple comes naturally from Christian Drouin's expertise in Calvados production in Normandy.
The gin is produced in small batches, ensuring consistency and character in every bottle.
