5th Earth Citrics Gin is a distilled gin produced in Spain by Destileries del Maresme, a Catalan distillery located near the Mediterranean coast. The 5th Earth range is conceived around the idea of expressing freshness, balance and accessibility while remaining anchored in traditional gin production methods. Citrics Gin represents the most citrus-driven expression of the range, designed to highlight Mediterranean agrume profiles without departing from a classic gin structure.

The gin is produced from a neutral grain spirit, which is redistilled with juniper berries and a selection of citrus peels including orange, lemon, grapefruit and mandarin, complemented by aromatic herbs. While the exact botanical list and distillation cut details are not publicly disclosed, the production follows a distilled gin approach in which the botanicals are infused and redistilled to ensure clarity and precision of aroma rather than sweetness or artificial flavouring.

On the nose, the gin opens with an immediate burst of fresh citrus zest, dominated by mandarin and orange peel, supported by sharper lemon notes and a subtle bitterness from grapefruit. Juniper remains clearly perceptible, providing a resinous backbone that anchors the aromatic profile. Herbal nuances appear in the background, adding a light green and aromatic dimension.

The palate is crisp and lively, with a clean juniper entry followed by a layered citrus progression. Sweet orange and mandarin notes lead, quickly balanced by lemon acidity and gentle grapefruit bitterness. The texture is relatively light and dry, allowing the citrus elements to remain precise and refreshing rather than heavy. The finish is clean, moderately persistent, and marked by lingering citrus peel and soft herbal tones.

5th Earth Citrics Gin is well suited to classic gin and tonic serves where freshness is desired, particularly when paired with a neutral or lightly bitter tonic and a simple citrus garnish. Its profile also lends itself to citrus-forward cocktails such as the Gin Fizz or Tom Collins, where its bright aromatic character can remain clearly identifiable.
