NormindiaGin(700mL)

<p>A unique French Gin from a Calvados-making family.</p><p><em>Pierre </em>is the third-generation of the <em>Domaine du Coquerel family</em> that has been producing Calvados in their distillery since <em>1937</em>. After traveling in India, he was inspired by the abundance of exotic spices they have over there and so the idea for Gin Normindia was born.</p><p>Pierre then found an old recipe in an old family book that dated back to <em>1765 </em>that was approved by the then <em>King of France, Louis XV.</em> The Spirit was called<em> ‘La Chymie du Goût et de l’Odorat’</em>, which basically means the<em> chemistry of flavors and aromas</em>. He went to work and began experimentation: <em>42 macerations</em> and <em>33 micro-distillations later</em>, the final recipe was reated.</p><p><em>Gin Normindia</em> is 100% produced at the family estate. The maceration lasts for 4 to 12 days in a stainless steel vat before the Gin is distilled in the smallest <em>Calvados copper still,</em> yielding 10,000 bottles per batch. The recipe is comprised of <em>15 botanicals</em>, including apple, orange, cinnamon, juniper, lily, clove, ginger, and coriander. This is a fresh, fruity, and light Gin that’s r<em>eminiscent of Clavados flavors</em> with its light spices and floral notes. </p>
