Jij Jiji Darjeeling is an Indian dry gin whose main ingredient is black tea, considered one of the finest teas grown in the Darjeeling region of West Bengal. High quality single estate teas are used for each batch. Juniper, ginger, cardamom and cloves are also used. Distillation takes place in copper pot stills in Goa.
The Jin Jiji Darjeeling Dry Gin version uses Darjeeling First Flush tea.
"We chose tea as the fundamental plant because India is home to the world's most famous geographically indicated (GI) tea regions. Darjeeling was the first Indian product to get the GI label, and we are convinced that gin is a distillate that can express terroir."
In this version, ginger, cardamom and cloves, used in Masala Chai Tea, a traditional preparation from India, are also added.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
