We are unbelievably proud to say that Renais Grand Cru Cask-Aged has been awarded the highest certification possible in the Gin Masters, First Tasting awards by The Spirits Business, winning a Masters certification. Knowing all the time and expertise that has been put into perfecting this liquid we are all so thrilled to hear that our spirit is just as loved by the experts as by us. With comments from the judges that explain our Grand Cru’s profile as having ‘Grape notes on the nose, to taste there's buckets of orange, and orange blossom alongside a subtle warming spice.’ and a ‘very nice’ ‘honeyed note on the finish’. As well as confirming that, Renais Grand Cru ‘loses nothing of its gin character while singing from the finish.’ Bringing the ‘bright and fizzy, elegance of Chablis.’ We couldn’t be happier and would like to say a massive thank you to all the esteemed judges and to everyone who has tried our Grand Cru gin so far. Limited bottles left. If you want to find out what all the fuss is about you can buy this Limited edition on our website. Or if you fancy trying Renais Grand Cru in the wild, you can head to one of London’s most renowned venues including The Beaufort Bar at The Savoy, Kwãnt - Mayfair, Happiness Forgets - Shoreditch, Nipperkin - Mayfair, and Luca - Farringdon to try it in cocktail form!
