Gin Avem | Corvus

The great character of our gins comes from the ancestral method of production, generally used for the creation of Cognacs or Whiskies, the art of blending. This technique, very widespread in the wine world, is part of the DNA of Maison Mounicq and consists of blending different eaux-de-vie to create a single exceptional spirit.

Avem Gins are experimental gins made from grape varieties from the prestigious Bordeaux region (Cabernet-Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sémillon).

Corvus Gin is a powerful and expressive Navy Strength (57.2°). It is the result of a blend of grape brandy, a second made from juniper berries, one with all our aromatic plants and herbs, and finally a bitter orange distillate.

Its wine origins offer a rich texture and a beautiful length in the mouth, perfectly balancing the high alcohol content and making this spirit a rounded and delicious gin. It is characterized by beautiful bitter notes, linked to the flavors of orange peel and the dominance of juniper berries in its composition.

Before tasting, we recommend letting the gin open for a few minutes by serving it in a wine glass. At Maison Mounicq, we like it neat at room temperature, like all our spirits. You can also add an ice cube, like our father, to dilute the alcohol or incorporate a few drops of pure water, a common practice in the world of whisky. The neutral gin & tonic pairing, accompanied by a sage leaf, is a must. You can also prepare delicious cocktails to wow your guests.
