Tasting Notes

Nose

Restrained juniper — soothing spearmint, green basil and rosemary, cardamom spice, very soft and inviting

Palate

Cool and green — spearmint first, then rosemary, thyme, and basil layering, light body with oily texture, the Provençal herbs creating a kitchen-garden gin of real quality

Finish

Sweet cool eucalyptus — gentle cardamom, the twelve Provençal botanicals signing off with mint and herb freshness, beautifully lingering

First Impressions

XII — twelve botanicals from Haute-Provence: basil, rosemary, thyme, eucalyptus, mint alongside classic gin botanicals. 100% beet spirit base, no sugar.
