Number Zero Gin – Triple-Distilled French London Dry Gin with Quinine
Heritage and Inspiration
Number Zero Gin is a refined London Dry Gin rooted in history and precision. Triple-distilled in France, it follows a rare recipe recovered from 1705. This heritage recipe highlights cinchona bark, the natural source of quinine. As a result, the gin delivers a distinctive profile that feels classic yet modern. It respects traditional gin production methods while embracing technical perfection. Every step reflects a commitment to authenticity, balance, and clarity of flavor.
Carefully Selected Botanicals
This gin begins with a hand-selected maceration of premium botanicals. Coriander provides smooth citrus and sage notes with a gentle floral lift. Iris, native to the Mediterranean basin, adds a soft violet aroma. Angelica introduces woody and vanilla nuances that bind the blend together. Cinnamon contributes subtle sweetness and mild astringency. Lavender brings an expressive floral intensity that defines the Number Zero character. Finally, an exclusive Peruvian quinine infusion delivers elegant bitterness with a refined sweetness.
Traditional Distillation Process
The botanicals are macerated in neutral grain alcohol for fifteen hours. Next, the macerate is carefully introduced by hand into a copper steam-draft still. A vacuum system lowers pressure and temperature to preserve delicate aromas. Through condensation, vapor returns to liquid form with exceptional purity. The spirit is then triple-distilled for clarity and structure. Alcohol levels are reduced using reverse osmosis demineralized water. Final filtration ensures a clean, polished finish before manual bottling.
Tasting Notes
Visually, Number Zero Gin is clean and brilliant with steely reflections from the quinine infusion. The texture appears glyceric with marked tears in the glass. On the nose, the profile is fully herbaceous. Lavender dominates, followed by red grapefruit, chamomile, and green tea. Kaffir lime, violets, and jasmine add aromatic depth. On the palate, the mouthfeel is smooth and structured. An initial gentle sweetness leads into subtle warmth. Bitter quinine notes linger pleasantly, balanced by fresh acidity.
Perfect Serve Recommendations
For the ideal serve, keep Number Zero Gin in the freezer. Use clear ice made from deionized water. Choose a very cold tonic that complements bitter profiles. Add only lime peel, never juice, to protect carbonation. Serve in a crystal tasting glass to enhance citrus aromas. Pour no more than 5 cl and allow light oxygenation. Finish slowly with tonic for a refined experience.
