Gin BALON is a distillate produced in limited batches allowing us to better cure each phase of its particular processing. Botanicals are infused for a few weeks with cereal alcohol and water in special steel drums. Later, the extract is distilled through our steam alembic which helps to release the essential oils, further improves the quality of the aromas and enhances the taste of the botanicals. Once distilled, the product goes through the laboratory to be tested and to calculate the relative alcohol content.
SENSORY
NOTES
AND CHARACTERISTICS
Color: crystalline
Taste: balanced
Alcohol content: 42% vol.
Size: 70 cl
To balance the alcohol content we have chosen to add some mountain water. The "rest" phase is not to be underestimated as it takes place inside steel tanks where the taste is consolidated and the maturation process starts. At this point we are ready for bottling, hand labeling and packing up according to the country of destination.
It is purely crystalline. The aroma is characterized by a bouquet of spicy and citrus notes that give it a strong, persistent and balsamic hint. On the palate is well balanced, as the acidulous and strongly aromatic taste of juniper is wisely balanced by some herbaceous, floral and woody botanicals. The sip, pleasantly sweet at the beginning ,expands by leaving room for some peppery nuances and fresh notes reminiscent of cinnamon, licorice and cloves.
The finish is harmonious, long with a slightly bitter ending.
It is an excellent digestive if drunk straight and may as well refreshing if you add some soda water or tonic. If mixed It can add a special touch to both classic cocktails, such as Gin Tonic and new creations.
