Espelette chili pepper flavoured gin

To the traditional botanical, juniper berries and coriander, Martine from Maison Brana has added Espelette chilli pepper, and many other plants whose secrets are well kept. After maceration, the ingredients are distilled in small batches in their three copper pot stills. The gin is then aged in stainless steel tanks until the ideal moment for bottling. The nose is soft and highly aromatic, with a beautiful expression of spices. On the palate, the spicy, herbal intensity explodes. The slightly spicy finish is very interesting. This harmonious, round and fresh gin can be enjoyed neat over ice, but will also develop all its aromas when diluted with tonic and sprinkled with a little Piment d’Espelette powder.
