Citadelle Jardin [700ML]

Description

What if you could capture the essence of a French château’s summer garden in a single sip?

Citadelle Jardin d’Été represents a masterful evolution of traditional gin-making, where Maison Ferrand’s expertise meets innovative botanical artistry. This limited edition expression showcases 22 carefully selected botanicals, including unique additions like Charentes melon and yuzu zest that set it apart from conventional offerings.
