Lord of Barbes Gin
Created by Hervé Lopez, a true gin enthusiast since 1963, the Lord of Barbès gin is an organic, crafted gin, distilled near Cognac at the Distillerie de Bercloux in a Stupfler still, the Rolls-Royce of stills.
Rich, delicate, yet surprisingly smooth and mild despite its 50% vol, the Lord of Barbès gin retains both the completeness and the aromatic diversity of its source ingredients. More than a gin, it`s a perfume.

Tasting Notes:
Notes - On the fore, strong floral notes, in particular lavender, acacia and honeysuckle, followed by spices such as cardamom, juniper berries and nutmeg. Notes of mango and almond milk give a glimpse of the indulgence to come.
Palate - Juniper berries arrive first and are closely followed by ginger. The freshness of these aromas compliments the bold and rich texture of the gin, and the aromas of the baobab fruit compensate for the bitterness and the acidity in the midpalate. On the finish, the consumer experiences white flowers interspersed with coriander seeds and pepper.
