Distillerie du Viaduc

With this bottle of Mint, Distillerie du Viaduc offers a novel and ultra-fresh interpretation of mint, far from the sugary clichés of classic liqueurs. Here, no syrup, no artificial flavors, no artifice: only three varieties of French organic mint – peppermint, grapefruit mint, and spearmint – macerated for a long time, then distilled at low temperature in an artisanal still.

This spirit has an alcohol content of 30% vol., yet remains extremely delicate. The distillation process subtly reveals the full range of herbal and menthol notes of the plants without becoming aggressive or overwhelming. The color is clear, crystalline. On the nose, it offers a pure scent of fresh mint, cut grass, and chlorophyll. On the palate, the attack is soft, the texture round, but the freshness is immediate and intense, balanced by a tangy note reminiscent of a green citrus zest. The finish is long, persistent, with an almost medicinal yet elegant freshness.

Sugar-free, this bottle of Mint positions itself between a digestif, a cocktail base, and an ingredient for creative cooking. Enjoy it neat, well chilled, to accompany a dark chocolate dessert, a sorbet, or simply to conclude a meal. It also works perfectly as an aperitif, lengthened with a dry tonic or sparkling water, like an "adult mint water" for discerning palates.

A unique, botanical, natural, invigorating spirit that ushers mint into a new era.
