You realize straightaway that this is a special gin, something different and unique. Its colour, amber like bitters or a long wood refined distillate, speaks of the importance of time.
The time to choose and combine the botanicals: juniper of course, and then tangerine, red sandalwood, sea water and that touch of caramel which gives Celestial Gin a warm amber tone.
On the nose, you first get the notes of tangerine, with its typical combination of sweetness and citrus. They perfectly blend with vanilla and coriander, creating a very pleasant well-rounded fragrance.
On the palate, you first perceive the sapidity of sea water, then giving way to the flavours of tangerine, bursting with intensity and persistence.
Thanks to its peculiarity, the combination of tasty sea water and the fragrant citrus notes of tangerine, it is perfect paired with sweet vermouth and bitters. It’s the Negroni recipe, to which this gin gives a memorable twist.
We suggest pairing it with a tartare or a meat or fish carpaccio: here, its sapid, citrus taste becomes an added ingredient on the plate. Also, it is great with salty caramel desserts.
