Gin Brace is an unconventional London Dry inspired by the Master Distiller’s past as a chef and by his iconic BBQ sauce, here deconstructed into its components and redistilled. The result is a complex blend of over 40 botanicals, both classic and decidedly unusual, such as juniper, tomato sauce, mustard, onion, garlic, beer must, and beechwood-smoked salt.
Despite its bold nature and extreme aromatic profile, the gin maintains a surprisingly balanced flavour: savoury, lightly smoked, and spicy notes intertwine without losing the essence of juniper, always clearly recognisable. Perfect for adding depth to a more complex Negroni, excellent with a neutral tonic, and ideal to share during a barbecue with friends.

Color: Clear, crystalline.
Nose: Immediately recognisable aromas of juniper open the bouquet, followed by vegetal nuances reminiscent of ripe tomato, light mustardy hints, and a delicate herbal touch. Completing the profile is a surprising smoky component, supported by a progressively unfolding balsamic freshness.
Palate: The spicy and slightly piquant character integrates harmoniously with vegetal and mineral notes. The structure is balanced, with good roundness despite the distillate’s strong personality. Nuances recalling tomato, mustard, and sweet garlic emerge, accompanied by a pleasant savoury and smoky note that further enriches the flavour profile.
Finish: Persistent, with juniper remaining clean and perceptible, while the savoury sensation accompanies the last sip and naturally invites the next.
