The result of this original blend of carefully selected herbs and botanicals is a Gin with a very balanced taste, with citrus, tropical fruit, herbaceous and vegetable aromas that are particularly refreshing and persistent. A truly special Gin dedicated to all fans of this historic distillate, who are always on the lookout for something new and special.
Coca Leaf Black' is a Gin made in Belgium with botanicals from all over the world. The two founders of the Amuerte distillery travelled extensively to select a set of herbs that would give the distillate an original profile and a unique taste. The basis of the recipe is the use of Coca leaves harvested in the rainforest of Peru, which are joined by many other botanicals that complement the Gin's aromas. During the infusion and distillation process, the coca leaves lose their active ingredient, releasing only the characteristic plant aromas. The Gin is distinguished by an aromatic character, expressing ripe notes of exotic fruit combined with spicy sensations and balsamic freshness. An experience not to be missed to get to know the reality of this distillery with its inimitable personality.
