Rivo Gin 2017, Magi

Rivo
The bottle and label are sublime, as is the content (43% alcohol): on the nose, a great freshness welcomes you with notes of pine sap, citrus, and white honey. On the palate, lemon balm and juniper assert themselves, giving way to a lemony note—coriander seed—followed by a bouquet of wild plants. An elegant, tangy gin, best drunk very, very cold, whether you choose to add it to a cocktail (see our martini) or enjoy it on its own.

Blurry Moon Gin 42° 50cl

Gimet Distillery

A tasting gin, organic and unfiltered, presented in a beautiful transparent glass sphere. The name Blurry Moon, "cloudy moon," refers to the hazy appearance produced by the gin's lack of filtration and the precipitate of essential oils it contains. It is made using the same basic London dry gin, a wheat distillate macerated with five botanicals: juniper, coriander, wild hops, lemongrass, and red cinchona. Cinchona, in particular, strongly influences the aromatic bouquet with a subtle bitterness. This artisanal gin offers superb freshness and notes of pine sap. Enjoy on its own or with a good tonic.

Gin Mist 37.5° - 50cl

Awen Nature Distillery

This organic gin, which received the gold medal in the Spirits Selection at the 2016 Brussels World Gin Competition, offers clean, fresh notes of distilled juniper berries, accentuated by lemongrass. Hops, coriander, and angelica root are also included in the blend, resulting in a cloudy gin after distillation, hence its name (mist, "fog"). An almost alchemical recipe whose powerful and penetrating aroma makes you want to enjoy it neat, but gin and tonic also goes very well with it—gin, tonic water, a slice of lime, ice cubes, and why not a simplified gin fizz? One part gin, three parts artisanal lemonade, a few ice cubes, a good shake, and voilà!

The Awen Nature distillery is a factory of magic potions: beverages with a strong Celtic flavor, organic liqueurs with a strong touch of poetry. This Breton distillery, located in Ille-et-Vilaine and run by Julien Fanny, initially focused on absinthe, a liqueur that Julien helped to rehabilitate. It's not "the liqueur that makes you crazy," he says: "we were already crazy before." » He strives—successfully—to recreate the taste of yesteryear, that of absinthes that were once given to children on a sugar cube as a dewormer. “You need a touch of madness to be a distiller today,” says Julien. In addition to absinthe, Julien distills a wide range of spirits and liqueurs: gins, vodkas, botanical rums, Swedish elixir, concoctions inspired by role-playing games… All made from plants, respecting the environment, without preservatives or artificial flavors. An ode to plants that the korrigans must sip in secret, at night, on the moors.

Culinaries Gin, 70cl

Distillerie du Viaduc


We are very proud to offer you Culinaries Gin, our first house spirit, the result of our collaboration with the Distillerie du Viaduc, located in Paris's 12th arrondissement. The distillery team—its two founders, Théo and Quentin—worked to determine the profile of this beverage, agreeing on the recipe and its dominant aromas. We wanted a very fresh gin, with a clean and precise aromatic palette. Once the composition of the macerate was fixed after several trials and errors, the bouquet of plants, 100% organic and French, and spices was brought together by the two distillers: always dried plants, for the preservation and concentration of aromas. The maceration of dried plants indeed gives a more flavorful gin. The ingredients are first macerated in neutral wheat-based alcohol with a 96% alcohol content, and everything is then distilled. Since the double distillation has already been carried out to obtain the alcohol, a triple distillation is carried out with the plants, which are left in the macerate to better extract the essential oils. The gin is distilled in one of the house's two stills. Once the gin is distilled, it is bottled at the distillery itself, in pretty transparent glass bottles of a refreshing aquatic blue.

Culinaries gin has an alcohol content of 43% and comes in 70 centiliter bottles. What's in it? The Culinaries gin recipe includes angelica root, dill seeds, coriander seeds, orange peel, sage leaves, juniper berries, and fenugreek seeds. We wanted it to be aromatic but not overpowering, unlike some contemporary recipes that are more reminiscent of a perfumer's workshop than a distiller's, and we wanted to emphasize freshness, for the greatest pleasure of your gin and tonics or dry martinis. On the nose, angelica immediately announces itself with its heavenly scent; orange peel and dill follow suit, and the remaining ingredients unfold in a subtle, soothing, and comforting range. Fenugreek appears last, enhancing this fresh symphony with a discreet warm and spicy note. We are sure that you will already find the bottle superb and that you will appreciate the contents even more. Serve this gin chilled, refrigerated, or even frozen for a more enjoyable experience. We recommend using a pouring spout for ease of use.

Rivo Sloe Gin, Magi SRL, 2017

Rivo
Unlike white gin, this is only 30% alcohol. To make it, wild sloe berries are harvested in Italy after the first frost, which softens the fruit and develops their flavor. They then macerate for several months in Rivo gin before distillation. A superb ruby ​​red color, slight sweetness, roundness, and no bite: just delicate, fruity notes of wild berries, pitted almonds, almonds, and sweet spices. Alone or in a cocktail, it's wonderful.

Vertige

Distillerie Sentema

Vertige est une création remarquable signée Distillerie Sentema, nichée dans les hauteurs des Alpes-Maritimes, entre ciel, garrigue et mer. Ce spiritueux, proche d’un gin dans l’esprit mais unique par sa base, est élaboré à partir d’une eau-de-vie de vin, et non d’un alcool neutre, ce qui lui confère une profondeur aromatique rare et une vraie personnalité.

Tout est ici pensé en cohérence avec le vivant : certifié en agriculture biologique, Vertige met à l’honneur des botanicals locaux soigneusement sélectionnés : baies de genièvre sauvage, écorces de citron de Menton IGP, verveine odorante, graines de coriandre, et racines d’angélique. Ces plantes sont macérées durant deux semaines avant distillation, pour extraire les huiles essentielles sans altérer l’équilibre des arômes.

Le nez est d’une pureté étonnante, mêlant les notes zestées du citron, la fraîcheur citronnée et végétale de la verveine, et la signature résineuse du genièvre. En bouche, l’attaque est soyeuse et vive, avec une structure douce mais précise, et une finale qui persiste sur les notes d’agrumes et d’herbes sèches, dans une belle tension.

Plus qu’un simple gin, Vertige est une expression raffinée du terroir provençal, entre élégance florale, amertume subtile, et fraîcheur végétale. Il se déguste aussi bien pur sur glace, qu’en cocktail haut de gamme, où il remplacera brillamment un London Dry avec une personnalité solaire et locale.
