We are pleased to present the Brana lemon gin from Martine Brana, with whom we had the pleasure of exchanging words in order to learn more about her Brana spirit, a family story.
The Brana distillery
Brana opened its doors last spring in Ossetia, with, in addition to the distillery, a vast shop area where wines and the entire range of Brana spirits and brandies are presented.
Thanks to an elaboration from fresh hand-cut plants and limes, it is acidulous and fresh notes that have been sought, through a slow distillation in the small 400-litre still that has found its place in the new Brana distillery.
What is the basis of your gin ?
It is made from our selection of fresh plants and hand-cut fresh lime zest. It is patiently distilled in our small 400-litre still to capture the complexity of the aromas where juniper berries are present.
Which cocktail do you recommend with this gin ?
“After the “spicy” world of Espelette chilli pepper gin, I wanted to work on a gin recipe combining the freshness of a citrus fruit with the tonic character of juniper berry. I chose lime for its delicious tangy notes that blend harmoniously with it. ”
Don’t drink and drive. Enjoy responsibly.
