CHRISTIAN DROUIN LE GIN PIRA 70CL

Christian Drouin Le Gin Pira

Discover Le Gin Pira from Christian Drouin, a refined French gin inspired by the fruit and botanical character of Normandy.

Pear takes centre stage in this distinctive recipe, with Normandy pear spirits combined with juniper, vanilla, lemon, black pepper and iris root. The result is an aromatic gin with expressive white-fruit notes, gentle spice and a delicate floral character.

A Gin Inspired by Normandy

Christian Drouin created Le Gin Pira as a continuation of the house’s exploration of Normandy’s traditional fruit and botanical profile. Pear is one of the region’s emblematic fruits, especially the small Domfront pear, known for its subtle aroma, freshness and gentle tannic character.

Each botanical is macerated and distilled separately before the individual distillates are blended together. This careful approach allows the different aromas to remain clearly defined while creating a balanced and complex gin.
