Country French Gin
Distillery/Brand Citadelle

Citadelle Reserve (old)

Taking Citadelle gin, the distillers took this unusual spirit to Cognac Ferrand's Cellar Master, who aged the gin in small quantities in Château de Bonbonnet's cellars in a Solera system, a maturation method usually seen in Sherry production (though has been becoming rather popular in the rum world too). Very impressive stuff - we recommend serving it over ice to get the fully flavour profile which the maturation has imparted.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose Cardamom and aniseed on the nose, juniper and vanilla, bittersweet oak.

Palate Medium-bodied with complex notes of spice, cedar and fresh herbs, Quite floral too, with notes of lavender soap and rosemary.

Finish Long and crisp with more of those bruised herbal notes.

Reviews for Citadelle Reserve Gin (Old Bottling)
Excellent
We concur with the tasting notes and think the sherry casks add to the brandy hints hidden within. Also Benedictine type herbals. Excellent.
