Ginius Belgian Dry Gin is presented as a powerful Belgian dry gin distilled by Spirits By Design, with a notably high bottling strength of 50% ABV. Its identity is built around a compact but expressive botanical palette where citrus, flowers, spice and dry root notes all play a visible role. The gin is often described through nine carefully selected botanicals, with lavender and laurel standing out as signature markers. The result is not a soft floral gin: it keeps the structure of a dry gin while pushing aromatic intensity and texture further than many standard 40% expressions.

The known botanical profile brings together lavender, laurel, grapefruit, lime, black pepper and angelica. Grapefruit and lime give the opening a bright citrus line, with a sharper, fresher impression than orange-led gins. Lavender adds a floral lift that can feel elegant and aromatic when kept in balance, while laurel brings a more savoury and resinous complexity. Black pepper gives heat and tension, and angelica reinforces the dry, earthy framework that supports the aromatic top notes. This combination explains the gin's navigation signals: citrus, floral, spicy and dry.

On the nose, Ginius Belgian Dry Gin moves between zesty citrus and a fine floral register, with grapefruit peel, lime freshness and lavender forming the most immediate impression. The herbal depth of laurel appears behind that brightness, preventing the aroma from becoming one-dimensional. On the palate, the 50% ABV gives firmness and concentration. Citrus oils lead the attack, then lavender and laurel broaden the middle palate before black pepper and angelica bring a drier, more structured finish. The gin can turn cloudy with ice or tonic, a visual effect linked to a high concentration of essential oils rather than to a fault.

In service, Ginius works best with a tonic that can handle its strength and aromatic charge. A classic Indian tonic or a dry premium tonic will keep the bitterness and citrus tension in place, while a grapefruit garnish reinforces the citrus axis without adding sweetness. Its style is assertive, dry and aromatic, with enough concentration to remain precise in a gin and tonic while still showing its floral and citrus detail.
