Vietnamese gin produced by Sông Cái Distillery in Hanoi, Vietnam
Native and heirloom Vietnamese botanicals include pomelo blossom, jasmine, ylang ylang, ng?c lan (white jade orchid), and móng r?ng (tail grape)
Juniper sourced from Macedonia; all other botanicals locally sourced in collaboration with Vietnamese highland mountain communities
Neutral spirit produced from rice and molasses
Botanicals are grouped by their flavor profiles and volatility, macerated in neutral spirit, and separately distilled before blending
Distilled in direct-fire copper alembic pot stills
Orange blossom, tart black cherry, white tea, and jackfruit on the nose precede a lush palate of jasmine pearls, orange peel, pink peppercorn, and elderflower with pomelo peel, bee pollen, and a touch of tropical lychee sweetness on the finish
45% ABV
Traditionally, Vietnam enjoys celebrations on the 1st and 15th of every month revolving around the harvesting of flowers to decorate family altars and perfume homes. Sông Cái Floral Gin is a contemporary dry gin that celebrates this native flora. Enjoy this delightful expression simply on the rocks or with soda, as well in cocktails such as a Ramos Gin Fizz, a White Negroni, or an Aviation without the polarizing crème de violette!
