Citadelle® Gin
CITADELLE GIN is an intriguingly complex and thoroughly engaging gin. A quick appraisal of its considerable attributes supports the contention that this savory ultra-premium gin is going to enjoy a long and prosperous stay on American top-shelves.

Handcrafted by Cognac Ferrand, one of France’s renowned producers of cognacs, liqueurs and fine spirits, Citadelle is quadruple-distilled in small batches in traditional copper alembic stills. It is formulated based on a centuries old recipe that combines nineteen, high-grade botanicals and aromatics from four continents with spring water from the famous Angeac Champagne Springs in Cognac. Balancing these exotic ingredients—including French juniper, Moroccan coriander, Spanish lemon peels, Indian cardamom and cassia bark from Indochina—is a daunting challenge, one masterfully accomplished in this gin. It is bottled at 88 proof.

Citadelle is a highly aromatic spirit with a genuinely distinctive taste. Its light, fresh bouquet is laced with juniper, spice and citrus. The gin has a full, sultry body—unusual for such a delicate spirit—and a crisp, clean palate lavishly endowed with spicy, herbal flavors. Not surprising in a gin of this world-class stature, the vibrant flavor of alpine juniper berries is most predominant. The finish is relaxed and memorable.
