Agricolo Blagheur Gin (70cl)

Agricolo Blagheur is a gin made by Franco Cavallero in Piedmont, using short-chain botanicals grown mainly on Piedmontese land. It is a distilled and compound gin: ethyl alcohol is distilled with juniper berries, then cold-added ingredients such as cumin, musk rose, iris, coriander, marjoram, zedoary, wormwood, mint and arquebuse are added. The gin is herbaceous, with cumin, coriander, zedoary and mint blending with juniper, softened by rose, marjoram, iris and arquebuse. It has a dry, decisive taste with a slightly herbaceous and mentholated finish, ending with a fresh, herbaceous note. It can be drunk neat as a digestif or with tonic water.
