Premium Canadian Ungava Gin

Ungava Premium Gin is a distinctive Canadian gin from Quebec, known for its vibrant yellow color and unique flavor profile derived from six rare Arctic botanicals:

Key Features:

• Arctic Botanicals: Made with Nordic juniper, Arctic blend, cloudberry, crowberry, Labrador tea, and wild rose hips, all hand-foraged in the Ungava Peninsula.
• “Wet Gin” Style: The botanicals are steeped for five weeks after distillation, contributing to its color and intense flavor.
• Corn Base: Distilled from local corn.
• Proof: Typically bottled at 43.1% ABV.
• Signature Color: Its natural, bright yellow hue comes from the infusion of the Arctic botanicals, particularly wild rose hips and cloudberry.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Often described as having a fresh, floral aroma with notes of citrus (particularly from the Nordic juniper) and hints of peppermint tea.
• Palate: Lively and smooth, with a balance of sweet summer berries, a touch of fig, and the core spice of juniper. Some detect a light tartness from the crowberry and cloudberry.
• Finish: The finish is often described as having a sweet spearmint note that evolves from the initial peppermint, alongside fading hints of caramel.

Awards:

Ungava Gin has received several accolades, including:

• Gold Medal at the World Spirits Awards in 2016, 2018, and 2020.
• Best Compound Gin at the World Gin Awards 2016.
• Bronze Medal at the World Gin Awards 2024.

Overall Impression:

Ungava Premium Gin offers a unique and intriguing departure from traditional gins. Its blend of Arctic botanicals creates a complex flavor profile that is both fresh and slightly fruity, with a distinctive character that reflects its Canadian origin. It’s often recommended for cocktails, particularly with tonic and a wedge of grapefruit, which complements its bright and slightly tart notes. Some also enjoy it neat to appreciate its smoothness and unique flavor.
