Džin

Juniper, dry, botanical, with a cold mineral bite. Gin smells like a London still-room -- pine-sharp berries, coriander seed, and the clean transparency of rectified spirit.

Detaljno
Zanimljivosti
London Dry gin must be flavoured solely through re-distillation of neutral spirit with natural botanicals -- nothing can be added after distillation except water and a tiny amount of sugar (max 0.1 g/L). This prohibition on post-distillation flavouring is what makes London Dry 'dry.'

U parfemima
Gin is a botanical-aromatic top-to-heart accord built around juniper berry oil (alpha-pinene, myrcene, sabinene). Supporting botanicals: coriander (linalool), angelica root (earthy), orris (powdery), citrus peel. The accord provides cocktail-culture reference and botanical complexity. Works in aromatic, citrus-herbal, and modern-unisex compositions.
