Taste character CATZ Dry Gin

CATZ Dry Gin presents itself with a crystal-clear appearance that reflects the purity and finesse of this premium gin. Its transparent hue invites the discovery of its complex aromas and rich flavors. Upon opening the bottle, an intense and refined bouquet is released: fresh citrus notes intertwine with floral hints, subtle peppery nuances, and earthy tones of angelica root and bay leaf. Delicate bergamot oil adds an elegant, Earl Grey–like top note that immediately sparks curiosity. On the palate, the gin is full and rich, opening powerfully with juniper and coriander, followed by warm spices such as cardamom, ginger, and grains of paradise. A gentle warmth from cayenne pepper and a savory undertone of bay leaf create a layered and sophisticated tasting experience. The finish is long, softly spiced, and warming, with harmonious notes of bergamot, ginger, and subtle earthy depth, perfectly balanced by fresh citrus and juniper.

This gin is an excellent companion to refined cuisine, from delicate appetizers and fish dishes to grilled vegetables and light cheeses. Thanks to its complex flavor profile, it serves as an elegant and versatile partner for culinary moments. CATZ Dry Gin is best enjoyed lightly chilled, either neat, in a high-end cocktail, or paired with a premium tonic.

Description

Producer

The story of CATZ begins in 1789, when Heiman Cohen Catz established himself as a pharmacist in Pekela, Groningen. In his pharmacy, he produced alcoholic tinctures and medicinal elixirs—an artisanal practice that would later form the foundation of the renowned CATZ brand. His son, Bernard Catz, took the first step toward distillation, developing aromatic herbal bitters, liqueurs, and elixirs. Thus, a legacy of flavor, craftsmanship, and refinement was born—one that continues to resonate to this day in every bottle of CATZ Dry Gin. In 1857, the descendants of Heiman Cohen Catz founded the trading company “Firma Gebroeders CATZ,” which grew into CATZ International, one of the world’s largest traders of herbs and spices. At the same time, Salomon Catz carried on the tradition of high-quality herbal spirits under the name CATZ & Zoon van Pekela, renowned for iconic elixirs such as Red and Green Curaçao, once an indispensable part of Dutch jenever culture.

Today, CATZ Dry Gin embodies this centuries-old tradition. Each bottle represents a unique blend of historical expertise and modern distillation techniques, allowing enthusiasts to enjoy an authentic, refined gin with a story.
