Citadelle Gin 70 cl

A premium gin, Citadelle was originally developed in a Dunkirk distillery in the late 18th Century, and at the time Dunkirk was one of the earliest European ports for explorers of the Orient, who brought back herbs and spices from the Far East.

Their ultimate goal is to make Citadelle Gin in the same way vintners make fine wine, with terroir from juniper berries grown on their estate.

It was also voted “ Best French Gin in the World” in the Top 100 Spirits and awarded “Gin Grand Master” in London. Reviewers have noted that it is a mid-pungency gin, [12] with a more complex and assertive taste than London dry gin. Before being steeped in neutral alcohol, the master distiller selects the 19 botanicals that will complement the freshness of the juniper with tart, floral and exotic flavours. Nose: Citadelle Gin exudes delicate aromas of fresh flowers highlighted by more assertive citric scents. But it develops on both occasions too - on the nose that citrus begins to have an underlying floral note, whereas on the palate a sweet spiciness arrives, turning almost peppery at the finish.Citadelle has won more than 60 medals, among them “Spirit of the Year" at the 2017 World Spirit Awards as well as “World's Best Gin" and “Gin Grand Master" in London.

Citadelle Gin is one of the old school gins in this modern age, having launched way back in the 1990s. Beautifully balanced, it is elegant, soft and and long in the mouth, with an alcohol content of 44%. Our transit boxes are designed to withstand most things, but wine does however sometimes break in transit.The result is a fabulous gin made with 19 different botanicals including Moroccan Coriander, French Juniper, Mexican Orange Peel and Chinese Liquorice. Palate: More intense, herbaceous notes of juniper and anise; then, the spicy cinnamon bringing a very gourmand dimension to the gin. After a few moments, stronger, more herbaceous aromas of anise, grains of paradise and cinnamon develop in a most remarkable way.
