The DOPPELWACHOLDER 052 is a straightforward and complex spirit, in which Gerhard Liebl, one of Germany’s most decorated distillers, uses his full potential. Through the use of fresh juniper berries dominate not – as usual – the harsh and resinous notes of Juniper, but fresh citrus notes, subtle sweetness and subtle, floral aromas.
Thus, the DOPPELWACHOLDER 052 can be enjoyed straight as well as the perfect ingredient in a classic gin cocktail.
Preparation:
The DOUBLE WACHOLDER 052 is based on fresh juniper berries from Tuscany. These are gently squeezed and set in a "Weizenfeindistillat" for 48 hours.
Then Gerhard Liebl distills slowly over a period of five hours in a 150 liter still.
Finally, the DOPPELWACHOLDER 052 matures in earthenware containers for several months and is reduced to a drinking strength of 43% by volume with spring water before being bottled.
