A German Expression of Terroir and Precision – Ferdinand’s Saar Dry Gin
Ferdinand’s Saar Dry Gin captures the spirit of Germany’s Saar region through a meticulous balance of craftsmanship, vineyard heritage, and local botanicals. Named after Royal Prussian District Forester Ferdinand Geltz, the co-founder of the VDP Mosel-Saar-Ruwer growers’ association, this gin represents the elegant fusion of fine craftsmanship and viticultural tradition.
Tasting Experience
Color: Crystal clear and bright.
Nose: Fresh aromas of juniper, lavender, citrus zest, and herbal spice intertwined with floral notes and a delicate trace of Riesling fruit.
Palate: Smooth and layered with a refined blend of juniper, coriander, lemon balm, and angelica root. Subtle sweetness from the Riesling infusion enhances the botanical harmony with hints of pear and white pepper.
Finish: Clean, crisp, and slightly fruity with lingering citrus and herbal elegance.
Craftsmanship
Distilled in small batches in the Saar-Mosel wine region, Ferdinand’s Saar Dry Gin is made with over 30 botanicals sourced from local vineyards, orchards, and gardens. The spirit’s defining feature is its infusion with Saar Riesling wine from the Zilliken estate, lending a soft fruit character and vinous depth uncommon in traditional gins. Every element—from the handpicked botanicals to the vineyard-grown herbs—reflects a deep respect for the land and its terroir.
Best Enjoyed
Serve neat to appreciate its intricate aromatics, or enjoy it in a crisp G&T garnished with a slice of green apple or lemon peel. Its complexity also shines in classic cocktails like the Martini or Negroni.
Experience the refined craftsmanship and vineyard-born character of Ferdinand’s Saar Dry Gin on Royal Batch – where tradition, terroir, and precision meet in every sip.
