Knut Hansen

Herkunft: Deutschland

Alcohol content: 42%

If you encountered the Knut Hansen Dry Gin in a dark little room, you could get scared, because the image of a gruff sailor with piercing, bright blue eyes can be seen on the 50cl stoneware bottles. The intrepid Hamburger Knut Hansen is said to have really existed once - but he only became really famous with this gin. The idea for the gin made from regionally sourced apples, basil, cucumbers and juniper came into being in the minds of Kaspar Hagedorn and Martin Spieker while sitting together in a bar in the evening in 2016. The four "key botanicals" are joined by ten other secret flavors, the in the 200 liter Arnold Holstein distillery of the Dollerup distillery near Flensburg. In Germany's northernmost distillery, they actually specialize in processing apples into spirits. For the Knut Hansen Dry Gin, it is distilled four times with a slow supply of energy and in small batches.

Nose: fine, mild, floral fragrance

Palate: fresh and fruity apple note, cucumber and basil aroma

In den 1980iger Jahren wollte Alexandre Gabriel, der Gründer der Maison Ferrand in Cognac, seine Brennblasen in der Ruhezeit weiterbenutzen. Somit wurde der Citadelle Gin ins Leben gerufen.

Xibal Sharish Blue Magic Gin

Origin: Portugal

Alcohol content: 40%

Local apples, lemon peel, orange peel and lemon verbena as well as Macedonian juniper, coriander, cloves, cinnamon and bourbon vanilla are used to create the gin. The botanicals are individually cold macerated in an alcoholic base composed of 50% molasses, 35% wheat and 15% rice. Some of the ingredients macerate for "only" 30 days, but others macerate for up to nine months. From these macerates, individual distillates are created, which are then combined to form a blend. The blend then only gets the vanilla and cinnamon added via infusion, and the elaborately produced gin from Portugal is ready to be shipped and sold.

But the Blue Magic Gin is not called that for nothing: thanks to a natural flower extract from the blue clitoris, the blue color changes to a light, cloudy pink as soon as the gin comes into contact with tonic water.
