Citadelle Rouge Flavored Gin

Citadelle Rouge is not pink. That's the first thing to know about the berry gin from France's definitive gin house — it pours crystal clear, because nothing is added after distillation: no sugar, no color, no flavoring. Alexandre Gabriel of Maison Ferrand was inspired by the scent of his wife's berry-and-rhubarb jam, which brought back his grandmother's preserves, and built the gin as a tribute to the French tradition of distilling fruit. It starts from the full Citadelle recipe — nineteen botanicals including estate-grown juniper, violet root, cardamom, cubeb, and fennel, added one at a time by patented progressive infusion and distilled over naked flame at Château de Bonbonnet in Cognac — then adds five more: cranberry, raspberry, blueberry, blackcurrant, and rhubarb, distilled with copious amounts of fruit. Bottled at 41.7% ABV (83.4 proof), released June 2025, and named Best Gin at the 2023 Spirits of the Year in France. VinePair put it among the 30 best gins in the world, calling it a red fruit bomb where rhubarb, cranberry, raspberry, and violet shine alongside juniper — built for highballs, tangy sours, and an amped-up Clover Club. The Gin Is In found berry candy with juniper, angelica, and citrus rind on the nose, then dry coriander, strawberry, and a blue-raspberry note, and called it proof the pink gin trend has grown up. Rasch: like walking into a candy store as a kid, without the artificiality — creamy and naturally sweet. Superb in a G&T with red fruit, or a Bramble.
