Etsu is one of the top Nippon gins on the market. Etsu means ‘pleasure’ in Japanese.

This gin is made by the Asahikawa distillery in Hokkaido to an ancient Asian recipe that requires various herbs, spices and citrus fruits, some of which can only be found in Asia (berries, pepper, citrus).

What makes our very floral Etsu special is the lingering notes of orange peel and yuzu, a yellow citrus fruit very popular in Asia.

Tasting Notes
Appearance: Clear, transparent.
Nose: Floral and vegetal, with pronounced citrus and yuzu notes.
Palate: Fresh and well-balanced with pepper notes and a touch of liquorice.

Etsu Pacific Ocean Water Gin is distilled at Asahikawa Distillery in Hokkaido.
Hokkaido is the second largest of the Archipelago’s four main islands, but the second least populated. It is located north of the island of Honshu from which it is separated by the Tsugaru Strait. It is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean to the East, the Sea of Japan to the West and the Sea of Okhotsk to the north.

In the Meiji Era (1868-1912) the island took its current name : Hokkaido, which means “the way to the North Sea”.

Fresh water from the mountain source and sea water from the Sea of Japan are added to carefully selected botanicals, such as juniper berries, bitter orange peel, liquorice root, angelica and coriander to produce this unique gin, which captures the Japanese coast line in a bottle.

Appearance: Clear, transparent.
Nose: Fresh and iodine.
Palate: Iodine well-balanced with the yuzu.

G'Vine entstand aus einer Kooperation des Destillateurs Jean-Sébastien Robicquet mit dem Önologen Bruno de Reilhac. Die beiden Franzosen verfolgten die Idee, die moderne Ginkultur mit der französischen Weintradition in einem Produkt zu verbinden. Grundlage für G'Vine ist daher ein Traubenbrand aus der Rebsorte Ugni Blanc.
 
Dieser Brand wird in kleinen Batches destilliert und dient anschließend zur Mazeration von Wacholder, Muskatnuss, Ingwer, Süßholz, Zitrone, Koriander und Cassia.
Eine Besonderheit ist außerdem die Verwendung der grünen Weinblüte, aus der ein eigenes Destillat hergestellt wird, das den Gins ihre typische florale Note verleiht. Nur einmal im Jahr, in der Mitte des Monats Juni, blühen für wenige Tage die Weinpflanzen, bevor die Weintrauben entstehen. In Frankreich nennt man diese Periode „Floraison".
 
Geruch: Delikat, süß und blumig, mit einer scharfen Wärme (Andeutungen von Kardamon und Ingwer).
Geschmack: Weich, fein und rund, nach Wiese mit Blumen und Gewürzen. Der blumige Geschmack von der Weinblüte ist sehr vordergründig. Wacholder, Kardamon und Ingwer folgen. Der Abgang bringt den blumigen Geschmack zurück und ist sehr lang und trocken, klar und knackig.

In order to create Le Gin de Christian Drouin Guillaume Drouin has been working on finding seasoning that would best balance, complete and enhance juniper and cider apple.
After distilling separately numerous plants, in the same way as a great blend is assembled, a final selection of 8 plants was made, all of them, with the exception of juniper, belonging to the aroma
universe of premium Calvados.
Creating harmony among these 8 aromas was the next step, then adjusting the recipe and at last understanding that our work process would enable us only to create "small batches" as the one plant at a time distillation process imposes to keep adjusting proportions so as to obtain the best possible blend.
Le Gin is the only Gin incorporating 30 cider apples varieties and 8 different aromatics. Each aromatic is separately distilled before being blended in proportions that are unique to each batch.
Rose and lemon provide delicacy. Ginger, vanilla, cinnamon and almond give the Gin a smooth, spicy body while cardamom enhances its fruit and roundness in the mouth. Juniper and apple complement one another with their heavy or high notes, spicy or crisp.
