Nordés Atlantic Gin

<< Previous wine    Next wine >>

In Spain, gin is a lifestyle. Spaniards drink more gin per capita than any other country in the world, and the gintonic is considered an art form. Served in large balloon glasses with garnishes that highlight the gin's botanicals, it's designed to enhance the spirit's aromas and flavors. The most popular premium gin in Spain, representing one out of every 3 bottles consumed, Nordés Atlantic Gin is unmistakably Galician. Crafted from a distinctive Albariño wine base and infused with 11 botanicals, including 6 native to Galicia, it offers a fresh, aromatic Atlantic profile with a subtle hint of salinity. With its smooth, bright character, Nordés was designed to pair beautifully with food rather than overpower it. While it makes a sublime gintonic, it's also a versatile cocktail ingredient, bringing freshness, balance, and a distinctive Atlantic character to a wide range of drinks.

WHAT MAKES THIS SPIRIT UNIQUE?

Nordés is made from a distinctive Albariño wine base, giving it a fresh, smooth, and aromatic profile unlike traditional gins. It's infused with 11 botanicals, including six native to Galicia, such as Salicornia (sea bean), which contributes its fresh Atlantic character and subtle hint of salinity. To bring out the best in each ingredient, every botanical is macerated and distilled separately before being carefully blended into the final gin. Developed by a master mixologist and a chef, Nordés was designed to pair beautifully with food.

DISTILLATION INFO:

Nordés begins with a distinctive Albariño wine base, giving it an aromatic profile unlike traditional gins. The gin is then crafted using 11 botanicals, including 6 native to Galicia.
