Product Information:

Tasting Notes - Clean, vibrant, and smooth, thanks to a revived 1771 recipe that calls for 19 fresh botanicals, the most of any gin, including violet root, coriander, orange peel, cinnamon, almonds, and anise. Perfect for those who take their martinis dry, this French gin made by Cognac Ferrand is ready straight out of the freezer. Robb Report

Other Notes:
The first nosing passes find scents of fresh flowers, jasmine, honeysuckle, and cardamom further aeration stimulates deeper, more herbal notes including anise, grains of paradise, and cinnamon. At the palate entry, the off-dry juniper presence is clearly evident at midpalate the taste profile turns creamy, rich, and flowery once again. Ends up off-dry, high on juniper essence, and elegant. Classic/Highest Recommendation. Wine Enthusiast. Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2011, 92 points. Excellent, Highly Recommended.
