NORDÉS 40°
In Galicia, the Celtic region of Spain, the cutting, fresh northerly wind known as Nordés augurs good weather and has inspired Nordesía. The gin outside the boundaries of the traditional, unique in character, rebellious, Atlantic.
Curiously enough, it has always been there… hidden amongst the endless possibilities offered by this land. Everything starts with a slow and quiet distillation, blended with traditional wild aromatic botanics. The magical herbs that inspire love, spread by word of mouth amongst local fishermen, the citric elegance of the verbena herb, claimed to heal all sorrows and melancholy, salty and errant Atlantic breezes, evoking past memories and longings, the fresh bay leaves, light lemon zest, a few eucalyptus leaves, a dash of sage, a hint of mint bringing empathy, and a pinch of the exiled Galicia from overseas: juniper, cardamom, quinine, ginger, hibiscus, liquorice, tea and the half-smiles of a cat…
Maceration takes place following the moon’s biodynamic rhythm, on Flower day. We recommend sensible consumption, in good company and enjoying, if possible, the little things of life, like the flight of a ladybird.
