Christian Drouin Gin Trio

Discover our Trio of Signature Gins (Le Gin, Gin Pira, Gin Carmina) in this special tasting offer.

For three generations, the Drouin family has been producing exceptional Calvados in the Pays d’Auge, striving to express the full complexity of Normandy’s cider apple varieties.

Crafted by Guillaume Drouin following the art of blending fine eaux-de-vie, Le Gin is an artisanal gin made by distilling Normandy ciders in small copper pot stills, alongside the distillation of juniper and seven other botanicals typical of the Calvados universe. Each botanical is distilled separately before being blended in a unique proportion for a limited batch of 2,850 bottles.

In Gin Pira, the pear takes center stage. The recipe features the Domfront variety of pear used in traditional poiré, combined with juniper, vanilla, lemon, black pepper, and iris root — the flower that adorns the roofs of Normandy’s thatched cottages.

Gin Carmina offers a summery bouquet, blending floral and fruity notes with raspberry, blackcurrant, elderflower, vanilla, lemon, and orange, alongside juniper and Normandy cider apple varieties.
