Kapriol Dry Gin has a fresh, balsamic bouquet of forest mountains, reminiscent of juniper and mint with a note of pine and bay leaves. The aroma is smooth and enduring whilst the herbs are balanced by the hops’ bitterness. KDG is free of sugar, thus creating a dry aromatic flavour. The absence of citrus fruits makes it easy to mix. In our opinion it goes well with lime and grapefruit, and results in a smooth, dry gin and tonic, extremely refreshing and satisfying, with a gentle bitterness.
DISTILLATION
Juniper berries are infused at room temperature for fifteen days before the first distillation begins, in two 100 litre copper stills from the Second World War. The same procedure is applied to the other herbs, except for the hops, bay leaves and oregano, which are distilled by a cold process which also extracts the colour pigments, following a gentle filtration that maintains the natural flavours.
