Audemus Spirits - Hoppy Gin - Batch n°3 - 44%
Based in Cognac , the Audemus Spirits micro-distillery was founded in 2013 by Miko Abouaf . A pioneer in his field, he introduced the use of the Rotovap in France, a rotary evaporator that allows distillation under low pressure . This process reduces the boiling point of the alcohol, thus preserving the aromatic integrity of the plants without altering them with heat. Each ingredient is worked individually according to its needs: maceration time, proportions of botanicals, distillation parameters, temperature and pressure. Once the distillates are obtained, they are blended in a French neutral grain alcohol . Audemus Spirits produces gin , liqueurs , bitters and hybrid spirits , always at the crossroads of creativity and precision.
Hoppy Gin was born from an original collaboration between Audemus Spirits and Brasserie Jukebox , also in Cognac. It is based on an IPA beer base, vacuum distilled with French grain alcohol , enriched with juniper berries and Columbus hops , the key ingredient in the brewing recipe.
" A unique aromatic expression, where Columbus hops bring vegetal freshness and light bitterness. Juniper highlights the gin's character, while the IPA beer base offers fruity and malty accents. Enjoy as a gin & tonic or as a dry martini."
