Effzeh Original Handcrafted Dry Gin

Effzeh Original is distilled by WeiLa in Germany as a love letter to 1. FC Köln, the kind of bottle that means as much to a supporter as it does to a gin drinker. It is built the classic way, with juniper, citrus fruits, coriander and a handful of finely balanced botanicals worked through a traditional distillation, the connection to the club giving it an emotional pull beyond the glass.

The nose is fresh juniper with bright citrus and a touch of spice. The palate stays harmonious and balanced, juniper and citrus carrying light herbal nuances, before a dry, elegant finish with a subtle edge and a fresh, spiced aftertaste. Pour it with a good Indian tonic and a curl of lemon zest, or let it anchor a Negroni or a Tom Collins.
