Timut pepper, citrus, grapefruit and intense floral notes. The signature gin of Distillerie Birdie, aromatic, precise and ideal in cocktails.
Gin Timut from Distillerie Birdie is a distinctive French Contemporary Gin born in the historic heartland of juniper in Hauts de France, built around an aromatic journey between Nepal and the Middle East through six precisely assembled botanicals.
A bottle presented by Distillerie Birdie, founded in Saint André lez Lille in October 2019, crafted from neutral wheat spirit from Hauts de France in which six carefully selected botanicals are macerated for 24 hours: juniper berries, Timut pepper, Damask rose, peppermint, coriander and cardamom. This gin is bottled at 44 percent alcohol. Timut remains the most emblematic expression of the Birdie range, a claimed bridge between French terroir and flavours of the world, continuing an artisanal approach resolutely turned towards atypical and travelling aromatic profiles.
Ageing and origin
Crafted from wheat spirit from Hauts de France, a region historically linked to juniper cultivation, this gin marries the classical structure of juniper berries with the aromatic boldness of Timut pepper, a Nepalese spice with grapefruit notes, combined with Damask rose and peppermint from the Middle East. The six botanicals are macerated for 24 hours in the neutral spirit before distillation, a technique that extracts all their aromatic richness while preserving the precision and balance of the blend. Founded by two passionate travellers and spirits enthusiasts, Distillerie Birdie settled in Saint André lez Lille in 2019, fully embracing its roots in the region most historically connected to juniper cultivation in France.
Tasting profile
On the nose, notes of rose and grapefruit emerge delicately, carried by the floral freshness of Damask rose and the citrus aromas of Timut pepper. Beneath these aromatic layers, coriander and cardamom assert themselves subtly, bringing a refined oriental touch. On the palate, the gin is intense and complex, marked by a frank peppery attack followed by aromas of rose and cardamom that structure the palate. The finish is fresh and airy, carried by subtle peppermint notes accompanying the rose in an elegant persistence.
The house
Birdie is an artisanal distillery in Hauts de France founded in 2019 by two passionate travellers and spirits enthusiasts, whose philosophy rests on the meeting between French terroir and expertise on one hand, and flavours of the world on the other. Its range of Contemporary Gins, resolutely removed from classic London Dry styles, celebrates at each expression a different botanical journey, from Nepal to Japan via Réunion island.
Tasting and food pairing
This Gin Timut is best enjoyed neat in a tulip glass to fully appreciate the complex peppery and floral character of its six botanicals, or as a Gin Tonic with floral tonic and a grapefruit slice to reveal the citrus freshness of Timut pepper. It pairs beautifully with delicately spiced oriental cuisine, edible flowers as a starter, fresh herb cheese or a rose-flavoured dessert, whose refinement will respond wonderfully to the peppery and floral complexity characteristic of this travelling gin.
