-13%Pour this and you're suddenly on a sun-warmed terrace above the Med. Bold green juniper, a cool minty lift, then a burst of fresh Provençal citrus that makes a plain G&T taste like a holiday. It's organic, it's elegant, and yes, Brad Pitt is behind it. Grab a bottle, build a tall one, and let the night sort itself out.
The nose is classic and confident: pine-fresh juniper with a cooling, almost menthol edge, then lemon and grapefruit zest curling up behind it. Sip it and the juniper stays in charge but never bullies. You get savoury herbs in the middle, a little oregano and thyme like a Riviera garden, then earthy liquorice rounding it off. The finish is long, soft and barely warm, leaving herbs and a rooty sweetness behind. Smooth, properly grown-up, dry rather than sweet.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This is the South of France in a bottle. It's a collaboration between actor Brad Pitt, the Perrin family (the Provençal winemakers behind Château de Beaucastel and the Miraval rosé) and the late Tom Nichol, a legendary master distiller with 40-odd years behind the still. It's 100% organic and unmistakably French: a wheat base, a London Dry build, and three citrus fruits grown right on the Riviera in Vallauris, the bitter Bigarade orange, sweet orange and grapefruit, alongside juniper, angelica, coriander and liquorice.
