Le Gin Carmina Description

Le Gin Carmina by Christian Drouin is a vibrant expression of Normandy's rich terroir, artfully blending over 30 varieties of cider apples with a selection of botanicals to create a gin that sings with summer's bounty. Each botanical—raspberry, blackcurrant, elderflower, vanilla, lemon, and orange—is individually macerated and distilled to capture its pure essence, then harmoniously combined with juniper and the distinctive cider apples. This meticulous process results in a gin that bursts with fruity and floral notes, underscored by a subtle vanilla sweetness and a refreshing citrus zest. Presented in a striking carmine red bottle, Le Gin Carmina is a limited edition release, with only 8,550 bottles available, making it a coveted addition for gin enthusiasts. Enjoy it neat to savor its complex profile, or in a gin and tonic garnished with a slice of lemon and a raspberry for a refreshing twist.

Using large ice cubes minimizes dilution, keeping the drink's flavors intact. The elderflower tonic enhances the gin's floral and fruity character, creating a balanced and refreshing serve.

Instructions

In a chilled highball glass, pour 5 cl of Le Gin Carmina, a French gin renowned for its vibrant red fruit and floral notes.

Add large ice cubes to maintain a slow dilution, preserving the gin's complex flavors.

Top with 15 cl of Fever-Tree Elderflower Tonic Water, whose delicate floral sweetness harmonizes with Carmina's raspberry and blackcurrant profile.

Gently stir to integrate.

Garnish with a fresh raspberry and a thin lemon wheel to accentuate the gin's citrus undertones.

For alternative pairings, consider Thomas Henry Elderflower Tonic or Fentimans Elderflower Tonic Water.
