Garnish
Thin Twist of Lemon ZestBirdie Shiso Gin is a masterful French distilled gin that elegantly marries the distinctive herbal freshness of shiso leaf (Perilla) with classic juniper and a vibrant bouquet of botanicals including hibiscus, Tasmanian pepper berries, citrus zest, and coriander. This 44% ABV gin offers a complex sensory experience: its nose reveals bright citrus notes of lemon, lime, and orange intertwined with floral hibiscus and a subtle spicy kick from Tasmanian pepper berries. On the palate, the herbal and floral layers unfold with a refined, clean character, highlighted by the aromatic shiso leaf's unique minty and anise-like nuances. Awarded the Gold Medal at the 2023 World Gin Awards for its bold and original botanical signature, Birdie Shiso Gin stands out as a sophisticated and refreshing spirit, perfect for sipping neat or elevating cocktails with its nuanced flavors.

Un profil trop végétal et particulier pour moi. Les notes de Shiso sont très dominantes et ne plairont pas à tout le monde.
