🌿 The Botanicals & Flavor ProfileAmeris utilizes a complex recipe of 10 distinct botanicals steeped in a neutral grain spirit base. The recipe bridges classic London Dry expectations with a modern, sunny Southern Italian twist.
- Core Ingredients: Traditional juniper berries, coriander seeds, angelica root, and cardamom form the savory, structured foundation.
- Citrus & Floral Accents: Fresh lemon peel, orange peel, and regional bergamot introduce elevated, aromatic top notes.
- The Juniper Blend: Uniquely incorporates classic Juniperus communis alongside Juniperus virginiana for added complexity.
👃 Tasting Notes
- Aroma: Big, creamy, and clean aromas defined by prominent rhubarb, pungent herbal notes, and zesty lemon peel.
- Palate: A remarkably soft entry leads into a smooth, savory mid-palate. Vibrant layers of juniper balance against bright citrus oils.
- Finish: Lingering and medium-dry with a clean, persistent mouthfeel featuring residual oil-peel character.
⚗️ Production & Craftsmanship
- Origin: Handcrafted in small batches within Campania, Italy.
- Distillation: The gin undergoes single or redistillation cycles inside historical copper stills to marry the botanical oils cleanly. No artificial colorings, sweeteners, or flavorings are added after distillation, meeting strict London Dry standards.
- Water Source: Diluted to proof using local, mineral-rich mountain spring water to preserve its smooth texture.
🍸 Best Serving Practices
Because of its crisp, dry backbone and bright citrus top notes, Ameris shines across several cocktail applications:
- Classic Cocktails: Perfect for elevating a traditional Gin & Tonic, Gin Fizz, or a crisp Dry Martini.
- Italian Serves: Pairs excellently with elderflower liqueur, fresh lime, and club soda for a regional Hugo Cocktail variation.
