Citadelle - Authentic French Gin.

The recipe for Citadelle Gin was developed by a distillery in Dunkirk in 1771. Dunkirk was one of the first ports of call in Europe for many explorers sailing back from the Orient, whose ships were laden with exotic herbs and spices.

Citadelle Gin is made according to principles laid down in the original recipe. Although the production techniques have improved over the centuries, we still use the same 19 botanicals listed in the original recipe.

Citadelle, the only gin with 19 spices
Citadelle Gin is the only gin in the world made with 19 different botanicals, giving the gin a unique, complex, well-balanced flavour. The secret recipe is known only by the master distiller. In keeping with the traditions of the first European trading captains of the 17th century, only the finest spices are used. This unrivalled variety of spices comes from many distant and diverse places:
• Juniper France
• Coriander Morocco
• Orange peel Mexico
• Cardamom India
• Liquorice China
• Cubeb pepper Java
• Savory France
• Fennel Méditerranean
• Iris Italy
• Cinnamon Sri Lanka
• Violets France
• Almonds Spain
• Cassia Indochina
• Angélica Germany
• Grains of paradise West Africa
• Cumin Holland
• Nutmeg India
• Lemon rind Spain
• Star anise France

A "hand-crafted" gin
Citadelle gin is triple-distilled from wheat and spring water. Before being steeped in neutral alcohol, the botanicals are carefully selected and then placed in a specific bag. This infusion is then distilled to capture each separate aroma, so that the intermingled, complex flavours can develop independently.

Tasting notes
Citadelle gin offers a subtle bouquet, with aromas of juniper and citrus. It is elegant, soft, and smooth on the palate. It has a long aftertaste which expresses its aromatic complexity to the fullest. At 44° - 88 proof, Citadelle gin is perfectly balanced between intensity and finesse.
The purity and subtle flavour of Citadelle gin makes it an ideal base for many cocktails, in particular the best Gin & Tonic in the world.

Mr.Próspero and Cocktail Academy were at the Alimentaria 09-Lisboa with Citadelle Gin and the presentation was a success, the tasting surprised most of the presents with its particular smooth flavour.

The Molecular team, Mr. próspero and Chef Fábio, created a special molecular cocktail with Citadelle Gin.

A caviar of Gin, Ginger syrup, fresh Black Pepper and Apple Balsamic sauce.

A different way of tasting Gin for the surprise of the presents.

Cheers to Citadelle Gin.

Bols Genever !!! Introducing the real white spirit from Holland.

The World’s Most Authentic Spirit is introduced to a new generation of bartenders and drinkers
Amsterdam, 3 September 2008 - Lucas Bols, the world’s oldest distilled spirits brand, is today
reintroducing Bols Genever, a superior old-school Genever created almost two centuries ago, to a
new generation of bartenders and drinkers around the world. This re-launch is in response to a
worldwide demand for authentic ingredients and class cocktails and creates a brand new white
spirits category.
Genever, considered to be one of the ‘original white spirits’, is the number one distilled spirit in
Holland and until recently was only available in selected local markets.

However the reintroduction of the
superior and premium old school Bols Genever in the USA, UK and The Netherlands will introduce modern
day drinkers around the world to this re-emerging and unique spirit category.
The new Bols Genever bottle reflects the spirit’s authenticity, taking inspiration from the traditional Bols
Genever clay jug. This classic shape is contemporised with the use of distinctive and stylish iconic smoked glass,
decorated with authentic Amsterdam handwritten typography, while retaining a nod to history in the form of a
traditional cork closure.
To celebrate the re-launch of this classic spirit, Bols has created a cocktail collection to inspire the bartending
community. The Bols Genever cocktail collection includes original classics such as The Holland House and
The Collins, as well as some great modern classics which combine the taste of 1820 with the plethora of bitters,
fruits, juices and herbs now available to the modern mixologist. With the re-introduction of Bols Genever,
bartenders can now finally recreate these classics as they were meant to taste.
