Mad Owl Gin – Citrus, 46%

Introduction

Mad Owl Gin Citrus represents the pinnacle of Danish craft distillation, combining traditional gin-making techniques with innovative flavor profiles to create a spirit that stands apart in both character and quality.

Production Method

• Raw materials: Premium botanicals including juniper berries and a carefully selected blend of citrus fruits sourced for their aromatic qualities and flavor intensity
• Distillation process: Small-batch distillation in copper stills at Thornæs Distillery, allowing for greater control over the extraction of essential oils and flavors
• Maturation: Rested briefly after distillation to allow flavors to harmonize before bottling
• Special techniques: Vapor infusion of delicate citrus botanicals to preserve the bright, fresh character of the fruits without extracting bitter compounds

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Bright bursts of lemon zest, mandarin, and grapefruit, with subtle juniper backbone and hints of coriander
• Palate: Complex layers of citrus, from sweet orange to tart lime, perfectly balanced with traditional gin botanicals. The higher proof (46%) carries the flavors boldly across the palate
• Finish: Long and refreshing with lingering notes of citrus peel, subtle spice, and clean juniper

Recommended Serving

• Serving temperature: Well chilled, between 4-8°C
• Glass recommendation: Copa balloon gin glass to capture aromatics, or highball glass for longer drinks
• Serving ideas: Exceptional in a classic G&T with premium tonic water and a slice of grapefruit or lemon; shines in citrus-forward cocktails like the Gimlet or Tom Collins
• Food pairings: Seafood dishes, particularly oysters and smoked salmon; light desserts featuring citrus elements; Danish smørrebrød with herring
