Southwest of Brussels, in the quiet Belgian town of Vlezenbeek, the Lindemans family has been farming and homebrewing as long as anyone can remember. Commercial brewing started in 1822.
Two of Belgium’s top quality labels have found each other and present the fruit of their collaboration: the first 2 Lindemans premium distilled gins. A premiere since the two gins have the special feature of having been made with Old Kriek distillate.
Lindemans and De Moor, both high-quality Belgian brands that share the same values, join hands to create two distilled gins: a clear gin and a red gin. Both are made from Old Kriek-based distillate and unite artisan and family traditions. They are genuine local products: Lindemans Kriek beer originates from the Pajottenland and is distilled in Aalst.
Tasting Notes
The fresh subtle citrus aromas in the nose are a harbinger of the citrus flavour in the mouth. Herbs provide a balanced gin with some softness making it perfectly mixed with neutral tonic waters. The specific, refined aftertaste of cherries is also present. This gin can be experimented in cocktails, for example with Prosecco as summer aperitif.
Method
First made in 2015. This red gin is double distilled in copped kettle and hand bottled. It is crafted from 16 different botanicals (juniper, coriander, lemon peel, orange peel, angelica, iris root, cinnamon, grains of paradise, tailed pepper, cardamom, lavender, cumin, nutmeg, star anise, rosemary & liquorice) and its bright red colour is due to the pure sour cherry juice added to the Oude Kriek Cuvée René Lindemans.
