Garnish
Thin Slice of Green AppleCin'Kin Liqueur Tagetes is a Belgian gin liqueur produced by Cin'Kin, based on the infusion of Tagetes patula flowers into the house Cin'Kin gin. Tagetes patula, commonly known as marigold, is traditionally appreciated for its intense aromatic properties and its natural association with fruity and floral impressions.
The production relies on the maceration of Tagetes flowers in the original Cin'Kin gin, allowing the botanical character of the base spirit to merge with the expressive aromatic profile of the flowers. This process results in a liqueur with a lower alcohol content than classic gin, while preserving a clear botanical identity.
On the nose, the liqueur presents pronounced floral aromas accompanied by fruity notes often associated with passion fruit. The palate is soft and rounded, with an initial floral sweetness that evolves toward exotic fruit impressions, supported by the underlying gin structure. The texture is smooth, and the finish remains fresh and aromatic without excessive bitterness.
Cin'Kin Liqueur Tagetes is typically enjoyed well chilled, either neat or lengthened with tonic. Neutral or lightly herbal tonics are particularly suitable, as they allow the floral and fruity characteristics of the Tagetes infusion to remain clearly perceptible.

Thin Slice of Green AppleIn a chilled highball glass, add a large ice sphere to slow dilution and maintain the drink's integrity.
Pour 5 cl of Cin'Kin Liqueur Tagetes over the ice.
Top with 10 cl of Fentimans Elderflower Tonic Water, whose delicate floral notes harmonize with the gin's tagetes patula flower infusion.
Gently stir to combine.
Garnish with a thin slice of green apple, adding a crisp contrast to the floral and fruity profile.
