CITADELLE GIN RESERVE SOLERA 2O13

CITADELLE GIN RESERVE SOLERA 2O13 – This new release from Cognac Ferrand is said to be the first solera-aged gin in the world.  It is aged in different types of casks over a period of two to five months.  The casks used are ex-Cognac casks, ex-Pineau des Charente casks and American oak casks.  Once the gin has aged, it’s poured into the mother solera vat to a specified taste profile where it “marries” before bottling.  The solera vat will only ever be half-emptied.  Suggested retail for a 75Oml is $35.  Available from MS Walker.
