- Description
The nose is a floral gin, with notes of lemon and slightly juniper, but notes of the grape variety are also discernible. On the palate it is well balanced despite the many botanicals, hints of lavender and roses can be sensed, but in the mix of flavors the Riesling notes emerge above all. Juniper can be felt, but other botanicals predominate.
Master distiller Andreas Vallander creates his own base spirit from his own grain. After several distillations, water is added to the base spirit to lower its alcohol content and then the botanicals are steeped in it. They are also added in infusion within the steam infusion chamber of the still so as not to disperse the essences of the more lightly aromatic botanicals. The two methods (maceration and infusion) are used during one distillation, which is more unique than rare. After the distillation is finished, a certain amount of Schiefer Riesling is added then the whole is left to rest for four weeks. Finally, demineralized water is added to bring the gradation to 44%.
