Citadelle Gin de France Rouge — Cognac, France — 700ml

Citadelle is one of France's most celebrated gin houses, distilled in Cognac using a 19th-century copper pot still and a signature blend of 19 botanicals sourced from around the world. Rouge is their most vibrant expression — built on that same classic Citadelle foundation and elevated with an infusion of fresh red fruits and rhubarb. The result is a gin that is fruity, aromatic, and completely natural, with no artificial colors or flavors. Crystal-clear in the glass, it delivers all the complexity of a great dry gin with a lush, berry-driven character that makes it as versatile as it is delicious.

Fresh and aromatic on the nose, with vivid cranberry, raspberry, blueberry, blackcurrant, and the distinct sharpness of rhubarb layered over Citadelle's classic botanical backbone. On the palate, the red fruit swirls with juicy, tangy energy — bright, dry, and refreshing, with the depth and structure of 19 botanicals underneath. The finish is clean, fruity, and lingering.

Built on Citadelle's 19-botanical foundation — infused with cranberry, raspberry, blueberry, blackcurrant, and rhubarb. Fruity, natural, and crystal-clear.

Pommeau de Normandie-style apple apéritif produced by Neversink Spirits in Elmsford, New York.

This complex, pommeau-inspired apéritif is delicious sipped neat (serve slightly chilled) or in a cold-weather Spritz. Once opened, refrigerate and ideally serve within 3–6 months; the spirit won’t spoil, it will simply begin to oxidize and lean towards its deeper flavors.

• Made from a blend of one-part Neversink apple brandy that has been aged 1 year in ex-whiskey barrels and two-parts freshly pressed, unfermented heirloom apple cider
• Once blended, the apéritif is aged for 18 months in 60-gallon French oak casks that previously held white wine
• Fresh, red apple on the nose with notes of walnut and butterscotch toffee; bright and pleasant acidity greets the palate with clove, sage, and celery root; the finish offers echoing waves of fresh apple skin and stewed apples with notes of ginger
• Contains no added sugar

Producer Description 

Amargo-Vallet Angostura is a bitter liqueur made from Angostura bark and a maceration of cherry fruits, cloves and other roots and spices. Herbal notes of bittersweet dark chocolate and citrus rind balance an earthly richness to create this delightful elixir.

Sipsmith opened in Chiswick, London in 2009 as the city’s first copper pot distillery in nearly 200 years — a small, principled operation that helped ignite the modern craft gin renaissance. Built around a single copper pot still named Prudence, the distillery was founded on the belief that great gin requires patience, skill, and the finest botanicals. Their London Dry Gin became an instant benchmark. The Sloe Gin takes that award-winning base and does something wonderfully old-fashioned with it: steeping wild sloe berries — the small, tart, jet-black fruit of the blackthorn bush — harvested each autumn and left to macerate in the gin until the spirit turns a deep, jewel-like ruby red.

The result is a handcrafted sloe gin of real character: rich and warming on the nose with aromas of wild berry, cherry, almond, and a subtle juniper backbone. The palate is luscious but never cloying — ripe plum, damson, and bramble fruit with a bittersweet edge and a long, warming finish. At 29% ABV it is built for sipping neat over ice, pouring into a Sloe Gin Fizz, or stirring into a classic Sloe Negroni. The definitive modern expression of a very British tradition.

• Producer: Sipsmith Distillery, Chiswick, London, United Kingdom
• Style: Sloe Gin Liqueur, Small Batch
• Base: Sipsmith London Dry Gin macerated with wild sloe berries
• ABV: 29%
• Size: 750ml
• Tasting Notes: Wild berry, cherry, almond, plum, damson, bramble, bittersweet finish
• Serve: Neat over ice, Sloe Gin Fizz, Sloe Negroni, or topped with Champagne

London’s craft gin pioneer, bottled in ruby — Sipsmith Sloe Gin is autumn in a glass.

Expert Review

Kara Newman of the Wine Enthusiast writes 93 Points | Look for a cloudy pale lemon hue, with a sweet ginger aroma and a hint of lemon peel. The viscous palate opens sweet and finishes long and warming, with plenty of gingery zing, a mouthwatering citric quality and flurry of white pepper sparks. 

Producer Description 

Handmade in Brooklyn, New York City, Barrow's Intense Ginger Liqueur takes its name from Manhattan's Barrow Street, the place where founder Josh Morton invented and perfected his recipe.

Producer Description 

Using the classic Cardenal Mendoza Brandy as its base, Angelus is made by blending in the essences of the natural ingredients, principally bitter macerated orange peel and cardamom, and ageing the blend in butts already seasoned with Sherry to achieve perfect balance.

This creates a unique, original and distinctive product which is enormously versatile. A rich and sweet citrus-led liqueur.

The Anjou pear is one of France’s great culinary treasures — cultivated in the Loire Valley and Picardy, essential to classic French pastries and desserts, and possessed of a sweetness that is at once delicate and unmistakable. Grey Goose has made it the soul of La Poire, capturing the flavor of a perfectly ripe Anjou at the precise moment of its fullest expression.

Built on the same foundation as the iconic original — soft winter wheat from the Picardy region, distilled and blended with spring water from Gensac-la-Pallue in the Cognac region — Grey Goose La Poire applies the same rigorous production process to a single, luminous flavor. The result is not a syrupy approximation of fruit, but a vodka of genuine freshness: bold, clean, and true to the pear itself.

On the nose, the Anjou pear arrives with clarity and confidence — ripe, floral, and bright. The palate follows seamlessly: smooth and lush, with the characteristic elegance of Grey Goose and a long, naturally sweet finish that lingers without heaviness. Sophisticated enough to sip chilled, versatile enough to anchor a cocktail.

• Producer: Grey Goose
• Flavor: Anjou Pear
• Base: Soft French Winter Wheat
• Origin: Picardy & Cognac Region, France
• Proof: 80 (40% ABV)

Bitter Rosso Liqueur | Torreglia, Veneto / Italy
Size: 750ml  |  ABV: 25% (50 Proof)  

Luxardo has been crafting exceptional Italian liqueurs since 1821, when Girolamo Luxardo founded the distillery in Zara (now Zadar, Croatia) before relocating to Torreglia in the Veneto after World War II. The family’s commitment to traditional recipes and botanical craftsmanship has made them one of the most respected names in the world of Italian spirits — best known for their iconic Maraschino, but equally masterful across their full range.

Bitter Rosso is Luxardo’s answer to the classic Italian amaro aperitivo — a beautifully balanced infusion of sweet and bitter oranges, rhubarb, mint, marjoram, and thyme. Deep ruby-red in the glass, it delivers a complex interplay of citrus peel, herbal bitterness, and a gentle sweetness that makes it endlessly versatile. Sip it neat over ice, use it to build a Negroni or Spritz, or explore it as a sophisticated substitute wherever an Italian bitter is called for.

Cappelletti · Amaro Alta Verde · Trentino-Alto Adige · Italy

Antica Erboristeria Cappelletti was founded in 1909 in the historic Piazza Fiera in the center of Trento — a firm rooted from the very beginning in the tradition of herbs, roots, and flowers of the Alpine foothills. Today, four generations later, Luigi and Maddalena Cappelletti continue all production in-house from their home in Aldeno, 20 km south of Trento, surrounded by vineyards and apple orchards. Alta Verde is their traditional wormwood amaro: a style that was once common throughout the Adriatic but has become increasingly rare over the last half century. This is the real thing — uncompromising, botanical, and built for those who take their bitters seriously.

The principal ingredient is assenzio — a variety of wormwood — framed and lightened by a complementary blend of alpine herbs, citrus, and spice. The result is a deeply bitter, aromatic amaro with a drying finish and genuine complexity. Best enjoyed with citrus and tonic or soda, over ice with a big squeeze of lemon, or in cocktails where Alta Verde adds depth and a drying effect to balance sweeter drinks.

• Producer: Antica Erboristeria Cappelletti (Luigi & Maddalena Cappelletti), Aldeno, Trentino, Italy
• Founded: 1909 — fourth generation family production

Lightly sweet on the palate, it finishes with an elegance that justifies both the process and the provenance.
