St-Laurent Gin Vieux 1 An 700ml

The distinctive aromas of St. Laurent Gin are rediscovered in a whole new light: herbaceous and floral notes interspersed with pine aromas reminiscent of Quebec's boreal forest. Rather discreet in the original version, citrus aromas now explode in the mouth. The finish stays true to St. Laurent Gin’s signature: a slight marine saltiness thanks to the maceration of laminaria seaweed harvested in the St. Lawrence River. Time then leave its mark: grain and woody notes brought by the ex-whisky barrel-ageing enrich the aromatic complexity of the liquid. St. Laurent Gin Vieux is a stunning sipping gin that only occasionally consents to ice cubes as sole companions.

BOTANICALS

Juniper berry, coriander seed, angelica root, cassia bark, licorice root, lemon peel, bitter orange peel, cubeb berry, grain of paradise, laminaria seaweed (kombu)

TASTING NOTES

A mellow and aromatic approach: the juniper is gently unveiled without harshness, then gives way to grassy notes, pepper and candied citrus. A long woody finish, slightly saline, a signature of the laminaria seaweed infusion.
