Description
Haegens Gin Citrus
It's not only Gin that the Haegens family produce. Based in Flevoland, they have an agricultural background - being farmers who produce milk, meat and dairy products. After initially starting with brewing beer, they now utilise an agricultural barn in the midst of the countryside to produce gin.
They use a by-product of their farming, whey, to create a pure and soft alcohol base for their gin. This truly makes them a 'grass to glass' distillery. They use a 500 litre copper still to produce their gin, along with dutch-grown raw materials.
As with their first gin, they continue to take inspiration from the seasons. Being from an agricultural background the seasons are intricate in their work - and it was for Summer that they released their second gin.
Summer is a time of sun, for leisure and enjoying the longer evenings. A time when a good gin & tonic brings a welcome refreshment. Their citrus gin really lives up to its name. It's packed with the flavours from orange peel and lemon verbena which are perfectly balanced giving the gin a fresh and fruity kick.

Perfect Serve
Delicious enjoyed as a zingy citrus Gin & Tonic. We liked this with Fever-Tree Premium Indian Tonic (however if you want to enhance the citrus notes even more, try with Fentimans Valencian Orange Tonic).
Take a large glass filled with ice and add 50ml of the gin and 150 - 200ml of tonic. Stir gently and garnish with a thin slice of lemon or orange.
