Rooted in tradition yet driven by innovation, Saffron Gin stands apart as a sensory journey that bridges heritage, spice, and elegance. Distilled in Dijon, it reflects centuries of distilling expertise combined with a daring modern vision.
Meticulous Craftsmanship and Botanical Selection
Saffron Gin is crafted through the simultaneous distillation of seven carefully selected botanicals in the Boudier family’s traditional copper stills. These botanicals include juniper, coriander, lemon peel, orange peel, angelica, iris, and fennel. Together, they create a rich botanical alcoholate that forms the backbone of the gin.
To elevate the spirit even further, an infusion of genuine saffron filaments from Crocus Sativus is added. This rare ingredient becomes the eighth botanical and defines the gin’s signature character. As a result, the final blend achieves a perfect balance of spice, citrus, and floral warmth. The gin is then slowly reduced to 40% alcohol by volume, ensuring both smoothness and intensity.
