Lumeçon Le Gin Montois is a Belgian London Dry Gin created as a tribute to the city of Mons and to the traditional festive and folkloric heritage associated with the annual Lumeçon. The product is developed in Belgium and reflects a clear intention to express both local identity and a structured, classic gin character, anchored in citrus, spice and Mediterranean style herbs.

The botanical selection combines juniper berries as a firm backbone with coriander and cardamom to build a warm and aromatic core. Fresh citrus elements from orange and lemon contribute brightness and tension, while basil introduces an herbaceous, slightly sweet-green dimension that brings contrast and freshness. The overall balance is built around a harmony between spices and citrus, supported by an underlying herbal complexity.

On the nose, the first impression is marked by lively orange and lemon zest, rapidly followed by the warm, lightly peppery aroma of cardamom and the dry, aromatic presence of coriander. Subtle green notes of basil appear in the background, giving the bouquet a fresh and slightly southern character.

On the palate, the entry is fresh and crisp, dominated by citrus. Cardamom and coriander bring structure and warmth in the mid-palate, while basil contributes a soft herbal roundness. Juniper remains present throughout, preserving the classic identity of a London Dry style. The texture is clean and direct, with a dry, refreshing profile and a coherent balance between spice and citrus. The finish is dry and moderately long, leaving lingering notes of orange peel, coriander and gentle herbal tones.

Lumeçon Le Gin Montois works particularly well in a classic gin and tonic, served over plenty of ice with a neutral or lightly citrus tonic. A slice of orange, a lemon twist or a small basil leaf can be used as garnish to echo its main aromatic notes. It can also be used in simple cocktails such as a Martini or a Gin Fizz, where its clear structure and freshness remain clearly identifiable.
