Tasting note
Sweet woodruff is aspérule odorante in French, sometimes called reine des bois, queen of the woods. Distillerie Metté in Ribeauvillé turns its flowers into this clear spirit at 45%.
Making it. The flowers are gathered in May and macerated, then given a single distillation in a copper still. The spirit is not chill filtered, and it rests in stainless steel rather than wood.
Tasting. Clear and bright in the glass. The nose is fresh and heady: cut grass, straw and cereal. The palate is elegant, with rooty notes of gentian and Jerusalem artichoke, and the finish lingers on dry hay. Delicate but complex, it rewards anyone who enjoys botanical spirits.
Serving. Metté suggests about 13°C, in a tulip glass. More distillates from the same tradition are in our eau de vie collection.
