More questions
Exploring Gin Lane Violet Cl.70 immerses you in a unique and enveloping sensory journey, ideal for gin lovers who seek a floral and distinctive nuance in their glass. From the first glance, the slightly lilac color immediately clarifies the distinctive character of this spirit.
Masterfully distilled, Gin Lane Violet embodies the essence of violet, flowers known for their delicate and intensely floral scent. The addition of these petals during the distillation process imparts a subtle and distinctly floral aroma to the gin, which perfectly intertwines with the traditional notes of juniper and a carefully selected mix of botanicals.
On the nose, Gin Lane Violet releases a complex bouquet where violet pleasantly dominates, followed by nuances of aromatic herbs and a hint of citrus. On the palate, the taste is smooth and well-balanced, with a sweet start due to the violet flowers that slowly gives way to a herbaceous freshness and a slightly spicy finish.
With an alcohol content of 70 cl, this gin lends itself beautifully both to being enjoyed neat, perhaps slightly chilled, and as a sophisticated base for cocktails that desire a marked floral character. Perfect in a refined version of the classic gin and tonic, where the more neutral tonics allow the enhancement of every nuance of its aroma, or in a floral martini for an intriguing and invitingly fragrant variation.
The elegance of Gin Lane Violet makes it an excellent choice for special occasions or as a gift for connoisseurs of quality spirits, who appreciate the harmony between distillery innovation and respect for tradition. A tasting experience that will satisfy both novice and expert palates.
For a complete enhancement of its scents, it is recommended to serve it with high-quality ice and a thin slice of lemon or, to further enhance its floral notes, with a fresh violet petal.
