Nine citrus fruits share the same bottle here, and the interesting part is that none of them makes the gin sweet. Lime, lemon, mandarin, kumquat, bitter orange, sweet orange, grapefruit, pink grapefruit and green grapefruit are layered around juniper and lemongrass, which gives Le Tribute Summer Edition a far wider fruit spectrum than the usual lemon-and-orange pairing. Produced by MG Destilerias, the Spanish house behind the brand, it keeps the precise Mediterranean distillation style that made Le Tribute recognisable, then leans it toward warm-weather drinking at 43% ABV.

The nose reads from the top down: grapefruit zest and lemon peel first, then the rounder tones of mandarin and sweet orange, with juniper holding a clean line underneath. Lemongrass shifts the aroma toward something greener and more herbal, and kumquat and bitter orange sharpen the edges just enough to stop the fruit turning soft. The palate follows the same logic. The attack is bright and clean, the middle broadens across lemon, lime and orange peel, and a fine herbal bitterness carries the whole thing forward instead of a sugary citrus impression.

Because the citrus works as lift and texture rather than as flavour syrup, the tonic should stay out of the way: something tight in the bubble and moderate in sweetness will let the fruit separate into individual notes. A chilled copa, large clear ice and a single restrained garnish - lime zest, lemon zest or a thin strip of grapefruit peel - are enough, since more decoration simply blurs a profile built on definition. The finish is dry, zesty and aromatic, with a refreshing bitterness that makes this a natural aperitif gin and an easy fit for long summer highballs.
