Sophia Delicate Gin 750ml

Sophia Delicate Gin is an artisanal craft spirit produced by Distillerie du Quai in Bécancour, Quebec, Canada. Crafted using a slow, precise distillation process in a custom Polish copper still, this modern expression eschews traditional juniper-heavy profiles in favor of a suave, highly floral, and complex botanical bill. Built on a clean grain base, it features an eccentric blend of 14 botanicals—including native Quebec sweet gale (myrique baumier), pecans, cubeb berries, licorice, cinnamon, and delicate floral elements. The result is a smooth, elegant spirit that bridges soft floral sweetness with subtle warmth and forest aromas.

Food Pairing: Fresh burrata with heirloom tomatoes, goat cheese crostini with honey, lemon-herb grilled white fish, fresh seafood carpaccio, and subtle floral panna cotta.

Tasting Notes: Crystal clear in appearance with a silky, soft, and lightweight mouthfeel.

Nose: Elegant and highly floral up front, opening with fragrant blossoms, delicate citrus oils, and soft spice, backed by sweet gale, light pecan woodiness, and a subtle piney juniper foundation.

Palate: Nuanced, smooth, and multi-layered, delivering gentle floral sweetness, bright citrus zest, and soft nutty undertones, evolving into warm cinnamon, peppery cubeb spice, and subtle licorice.

Finish: Medium-long, clean, and refreshing with lingering notes of sweet botanical perfume, subtle wood spice, and a soft, dry lift.
