G de Gin bottles G de Gin Acacia at 55% ABV, giving this French gin a clear starting point. This organic gin is distilled in copper, then matured in acacia wood, a choice that adds the defining woody dimension. That framework keeps the gin recognisable in a long drink and gives the palate a clear point of entry.

Its documented botanical bill brings together Juniper berries, Lemon peel, Coriander. Juniper supplies a dry, resinous backbone. The vegetal, spice, citrus or fruit elements named in the recipe add contrast around it and prevent the profile from becoming one-dimensional. At 55% ABV, the gin has the concentration to stay legible as ice begins to melt and the drink opens in the glass.

On the nose, the first impression follows juniper and the freshest components of the recipe. The palate develops in stages: the opening highlights the brighter notes, the mid-palate brings forward the herbal or spicy framework, and the finish returns to a drier, more persistent line. The result rewards a measured, attentive tasting rather than a drink built on overt sweetness or a dominant garnish.

For the GinToLove Perfect Serve, fill a large balloon glass with clear ice, pour 4 cl of G de Gin Acacia, add 10 cl of Fever-Tree Indian Tonic Water, stir once and finish with Lemon twist and White flowers. The serve is intentionally restrained: it extends botanicals already present in the gin and preserves a clean, fresh and balanced finish. Take a first sip before any adjustment to the tonic; it keeps the balance between juniper and the supporting botanicals in clear focus.
