Buss N°509 Elderflower Belgium Hand Crafted Premium Gin

Part of Buss N°509's Author Collection out of Belgium, this elderflower expression began as a winter release and quickly earned a place on the shelf all year. It starts from pure grain spirit distilled with fresh botanicals rather than extracts: juniper, coriander, angelica root and liquorice for structure, then vanilla, cardamom, orris, orange and lemon, with intensely aromatic elderflower at the heart. That arresting blue-violet hue comes entirely from natural blueberry skins, with no added sugar or artificial colour.

The nose opens on heady elderflower, fresh citrus and fine floral nuances over juniper. The palate is floral and gently sweet, with a thread of berry fruit, a harmonious juniper base and a flicker of warm spice, closing medium-length and balanced. Build it as a long G&T with a neutral or lightly citrus tonic and a few fresh blueberries, or stretch it into an Elderflower Collins for something properly summery.
