Elg Gin No. 4
Elg gin no. 4 can also be called a pink gin. This gin is made by extracting violet carrots with alcohol for 1 week. In July, the freshly picked violet carrots arrive at the distillery, which are immediately soaked in 50% strong alcohol. Quite slowly the alcohol becomes more and more violet. At the same time, the alcohol percentage falls, as the alcohol also draws water out of the carrots. After 1 week, the carrots are sieved and the violet extract is filtered. This extract is then added to Elg no. 1.
contains 500 ml.
Elg gin is a Danish gin produced at Stone Grange Craft Distillery, which is located by Esrum Sø north of Copenhagen. For the different Elg gins, 3 botanicals have been used. Juniper berries, coriander and carrots. These are distilled separately on an advanced column distillation apparatus, which is why it is possible to produce a gin with extraordinary precision. This not only provides a unique purity and elegance in the distillate, but also allows for the same taste and aroma to be achieved in each batch. Elg Gin is produced in batches of 1,250 bottles, each labeled with batch and bottle number, and signed by master distiller Henrik Elsner, whose nickname is Elg.
