Belle Rive Gin Description

Belle Rive Gin is a French dry gin inspired by the aromatic traditions of the Mediterranean and conceived in Grasse, a town internationally renowned for its perfume industry. The gin was designed with an approach similar to perfume composition, where botanical ingredients are assembled to create a balanced aromatic structure combining floral, herbal and citrus elements.

The recipe is built around classic gin botanicals led by juniper berries, supported by coriander and a selection of Mediterranean herbs including rosemary and thyme. Lavender and orange blossom introduce a pronounced floral dimension, reflecting the olfactory culture associated with Grasse. Citrus peels contribute brightness and freshness, helping structure the aromatic profile while keeping the spirit lively and approachable.

On the nose, Belle Rive Gin opens with fresh citrus and delicate floral notes, followed by soft herbal accents. The palate reveals a balanced structure where juniper and coriander form the backbone, while rosemary and thyme provide aromatic depth. Floral tones from lavender and orange blossom remain present throughout the tasting experience, supported by a light citrus lift. The finish is clean and aromatic, with lingering floral and herbal impressions.

The spirit is bottled in Cognac in an Art Deco style bottle designed by the artist Marie Field, reinforcing the aesthetic identity of the brand. Belle Rive Gin is typically enjoyed in a classic gin and tonic where its floral and citrus profile can be highlighted. A neutral tonic paired with a citrus garnish or a small sprig of rosemary complements the botanical composition.

This serve amplifies the gin's Provençal lavender and citrus notes with a subtle herbal tonic lift. Serve chilled on a sunny afternoon to evoke the French Riviera; the balloon glass captures the aromas beautifully.
