MYRIAM HENDRICKX
8th GENERATION MASTER DISTILLER
KAFFIR LIME GIN
A special gin. The base is a beautiful, classic dry gin with cinnamon and fennel, but then there is the extra taste of kaffir lime leaf. The green leaves of the tree that bears kaffir limes. The leaves have a unique, fresh and aromatic taste.
They are often used in Thai and Indonesian cuisine, where they are also called djeroek poeroet.
juniper berry, coriander seed, angelica root, fresh orange peel, fennel, cinnamon, kaffir lime leaf.
Mild citrus notes, with the unmistakable unusual taste of the kaffir lime leaf. Fresh and somewhat oriental, with a slightly spicy aftertaste.
Perfect for a thirst-quenching gin & tonic, or mix this gin with ginger ale.
The Rutte master distiller was impressed by the fresh kaffir lime leaf during a trip through Thailand. Once home, she tried to distill the aromatic leaves, resulting in this gin. Even though we love tradition, regularly a new botanical enters the old distillery.
