Citadelle
Citadelle Vieille de Grasse is a gin that has been allowed to age into its own wisdom. Where most gins are bright and immediate, this one asks you to sit with it. The extended oak maturation doesn't mask the botanicals—it deepens them, lending a patina that rewards patience. This is gin as memoir, each sip revealing another well-worn layer of a life richly lived. For Issue #159's meditation on worn things that speak, it is the perfect companion: something that has been shaped by time and is more eloquent for the weathering.
