Citadelle Gin introduces its newest gin, Citadelle Jardin d’été, a permanent addition to the Citadelle portfolio. Inspired by a French garden cultivated by Debbie Gabriel, wife of Citadelle Founder Alexandre Gabriel, Jardin d’été is made with melon flesh, whole lemon, yuzu zest and more orange peel, in addition to the 19 botanicals used to make Citadelle Original.
Citadelle Gin Jardin d’été is available in the US as of April 2021 and bottled at 41.5% alcohol by volume (83 proof) for a suggested retail price of $24.99 for a 750ml bottle.
The pioneer of French gin, and a longtime favorite of bartenders, Citadelle has been crafting authentic gin de terroir in a small village in Charente, France for 25 years. To celebrate its latest opus, Citadelle took a cue from the garden at the Château de Bonbonnet, Citadelle’s home in the southwest of France.
