Citadelle - Jardin d'Ete Gin (750ml)
Citadelle Jardin d'Ete Gin captures the radiant essence of a French summer garden in a bottle. Inspired by the thriving botanicals surrounding the historic Château de Bonbonnet, this vibrant gin is a highly acclaimed spirit, recently earning top honors like Spirit of the Year 2024 (Bartender Spirits Awards) and Best Gin in France 2024 (World Gin Awards). It offers a delightful, sun-kissed interpretation of Citadelle's signature complexity.
This unique expression layers bright, summery flavors onto the classic Citadelle framework. Notes of juicy Charentais melon lead the profile, harmoniously balanced by the zest and refreshment of whole lemons, bright yuzu, and sweet orange peel. The palate is fresh and exceptionally smooth, culminating in a long, invigorating finish that truly evokes the feeling of summer.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Jardin d'Ete builds upon Citadelle's foundation of high-quality juniper berries (some hand-picked from the estate) and 18 other carefully selected botanicals. These diverse ingredients achieve perfect balance thanks to Citadelle's unique, patented "progressive infusion" technique, which optimizes the infusion for each element. Distilled with precision in traditional copper pot stills, the gin’s ultimate fragrance and bright character shine through. Enjoy Citadelle Jardin d’Ete’s refreshing qualities best in a classic Gin & Tonic garnished with a fresh lemon twist.
