Macaja Cask Gin 50 cl comes with two glasses and three selected botanicals, designed for those who want to explore the character of gin with a touch of wood. On the nose it is immediate and clean: the classic hint of juniper has space alongside balsamic nuances and a slight aroma of vanilla and spices that suggest contact with the cask. The overall impression is restrained, not overly dominated by wood, and suggests a rich but controlled aromatic texture, ideal for tasting in good company. The three botanicals allow small variations to the aromatic profile, letting you discover different nuances with each tasting.

On the palate it shows roundness and good clarity, with a contained warmth that provides depth without weighing it down. The finish is saline and persistent, with aromatic echoes that highlight the included botanicals. The included glasses are designed to enhance the aromas and allow for an immediate presentation. Perfect served chilled with a neutral tonic and a citrus twist, or as a base for cocktails that require structure; the packaging makes it easy to share the experience.
