The history of the Paul Devoille distillery
You can't tell at first glance that Gin Gold 999.9 is produced in a small, very artisanal distillery in France. To be more precise, it is the Paul Devoille distillery, which is located in the town of Fougerolles near the border with Switzerland and Germany. Although Fougerolles has just 4,000 inhabitants, the town is well known to many spirits lovers.
This is due to the high quality of the absinthes and fruit brandies that have been produced there by various distilleries for centuries. One of these distilleries is the Paul Devoille distillery, which was founded in 1859 by the entrepreneur and master distiller of the same name. The distillery is still family-owned today and the recipes used for the various absinthes mostly come from the founder's recipe books. These are on display, along with many other historical objects, in the MUSEE DES EAUX DE VIE in Lapoutroie (Alsace), which is also run by the family.
In addition to classic spirits such as fruit brandy and absinthe, the Paul Devoille distillery has always been known for its innovative new creations. For example, they also produce fruits preserved in alcohol, spirits in cigar tubes and, most recently, gin.
The Gin Gold 999.9
The story behind the Gin Gold 999.9 is pretty spectacular. At the end of the 20th century, excavations took place in Alsace, during which a still made of gold was discovered. Since the archaeologists saw no historical value in it, they sold the special still to a local distiller, who spent the next few years developing a "perfect" gin with the help of the golden still. He chose mandarins, vanilla and almonds as ingredients, among others. This resulted in a special gin that was significantly different from previously known products. Gin Gold 999.9 was born! The gin is now produced at the Paul Devoille distillery according to this recipe.
The taste of Gin Gold 999.9
Such an unusual gin naturally arouses curiosity and invites you to try it. In addition to juniper, the nose reveals fine aromas of mandarin, ginger, violet and vanilla. On the palate, Gin 999.9 impresses with the taste of freshly cut flowers, almond and angelica root. Gin Gold 999.9 is best served as a long drink without the addition of lemon zest - this would mask the delicate taste of the mandarin.
