Raw material to bottle
Raw material to bottle
When we say that a gin is made from the raw material to the bottle, it means that the manufacturing process is done entirely in the distillery. So the base alcohol used was made and distilled in the distillery, then processed using botanicals to create a gin, all on the spot. The raw material can be grain, honey, maple, fruits, berries, whey and more.
Organic
Organic
When we say that a gin is organic, it means that at least 95% of the ingredients are organic. Organic certification ensures environmental and social respect throughout the process.

Recommended tonics
1 - Light tonic
Light tonic
With light tonic, it is better to use a more pronounced gin (ex: aged or juniper berry-based gin) but this tonic is suitable for any variety of gin. The light tonics bring the same traditional taste and the same bitterness as the classic tonics but they are lighter in calories thus leaving more room for the dominant flavors present in some gins.
Recommended garnish: Slice of grapefruit or orange.
2 - Classic tonic
Classic tonic
With classic tonic, it is better to use a drier gin (London dry gin) but this tonic is suitable for any variety of gin. The classic tonics are the most usual and they bring a nice bitterness that perfectly complements the taste of all gins.
Recommended garnish: Lemon, grapefruit or cucumber slice.

"In its first collaboration with the craft brewery Maltstrom, Distillerie Grand Dérangement presents its very first Sage gin aged in a beer cask. To offer your taste buds a choice experience, our delicious Saga gin spent time inside oak barrels that had held the famous Scotch Lager. This combination of flavours gives it its roasted character without altering its spicy side."
