Romeo's Gin V
What better nod to the festival of love than an ultra-premium gin named Romeo? A bold combination of lime, honeydew melon and green grape distillates fused with the brand’s unique character. Notes of juniper, cucumber, dill, lavender, lemon and almond. The result is a rich taste experience. It’s fresh and surprising, gently oscillating between vegetal, incomparable freshness and citrus explosion.
An ode to creativity, imagined for non-conformist spirits, from Montreal. With each limited edition, Romeo’s Gin V celebrates urban artists and aims to democratize art. More than a spirit, it’s a work of art in its own right.
Malfy Gin Con Rosa
Tint your cocktails a pretty shade of pink for the occasion with this gin, distilled and crafted in Italy. It’s made exclusively from local botanicals, including hand-picked juniper berries and Sicilian pink grapefruit. In the glass, it evokes fresh grapefruit zest, rhubarb, anise and citrus. A few sips and you’re back to the same palette, accompanied by a long juniper finish. The ideal base for classics like Negroni, Gin Tonic and Martini Dry.
Generous Purple Gin
Offer a bouquet of polyphenol-rich flowers made in France. Beyond mere color, this Generous Purple stands out as the first gin to incorporate polyphenols and anthocyanins extracted from grape skins. The former form the tannins in wine, while the latter influence color and structure, as well as being powerful antioxidants.
This alchemy gives Generous Purple a silky texture and dry allure, not to mention the freshness of a pink grapefruit-scented gin. On the nose, it opens with the liveliness of lemon zest, followed by intense pepper that blends harmoniously with juniper. On the palate, citrus bursts forth, enhanced by Timut pepper. A delicate, fruity balance that lends itself perfectly to a revisited version of the Spritz.
Brockmans Gin
Softness and intensity conclude this colorful selection. One sensation follows another, but no two are alike. Brockmans is an avant-garde gin based on an original recipe devised by three passionate British friends and spirits experts. It is distilled in a century-old copper still to achieve the perfect blend of aromatic richness, roundness and complexity.
Subtle juniper and red berry aromas. Fruity freshness gives way to a silky, velvety texture. Flavors of blackberry and blueberry assert themselves and envelop the palate. The finish is long and refined, with great scope. Magnificent neat or on the rocks, it can also shine at the heart of a Gin Tonic, a Gin Fizz, or a reinvented Cosmopolitan.
