Description
Surviving the French Revolution and two World Wars, Nolet Distillery was founded in 1691 by Joannes Nolet in Schiedam, Netherlands. Exporting spirits to the U.S. since the 19th century and perhaps most known for their Ketel One brand, this is the oldest running distillery in the Netherlands and it has been in the hands of the founding family since its very beginnings. Passing down craftsmanship and experience that spans over three centuries, today, the Nolet family distilling tradition is headed by the tenth-generation owner Carolus Nolet Sr.. Together with his eleventh-generation sons Carl Jr. and Bob Nolet, he strives to let the rich family tradition shine through yet combine it with modern tastes of the 21st century. By creating award-winning NOLETS Silver and NOLETS Reserve gins, Nolet family honors the centuries of experience while creating a modern take on gin.Nolets Silver Gin is crafted with a unique combination of real botanicals that has never before been used in a gin. A wheat-based gin, the traditional botanical range includes citrus, orris root, liquorice and juniper. The modern and contemporary botanicals, however, are white peaches, Damask roses, and raspberries these are incorporated as essences, made by a French flavor house. This results in a unique flavor profile with rose petals responsible for the lightness and refinedness, the peach brings fresh and sweet notes while the raspberry lends a robust and slightly tart flavor. Bottled at 95.2 proof, this is a an extremely floral and fruit-forward gin: a spirit for the new generation of gin drinkers. Best enjoyed in more exotic cocktails.Pick up one of the most contemporary gins out there!
