Royal Sedang 1888 Gin
The finesse of the Gin relies on a long maceration with chosen botanicals in order to achieve full extraction of their flavour components. The production process is a slow and careful one. From distillation in the copper potstill to reduction, the process will take six to eight weeks in order to keep the most flavoursome aromas in the Gin.

Royal Sedang is the meeting of French and Vietnamese cultures, seen through the adventure of Charles Marie de Mayrena.
He became the last French King after being elected by local Vietnamese tribes as Chief of the Kingdom of Sedang in 1888. Charles Marie was a great lover of Indochina and its culture, where he spent the rest of his life after marrying a Vietnamese lady.
Charles Marie was also a great gin lover, as told in books about his incredible life! Royal Sedang makes the drinker feel as if they are entering into a fresh food market in Vietnam or enjoying a fruit breakfast at a hotel bar.
The aromas and flavours of Lemongrass, Jasmine Tea, Lime...the most alluring in the world! Distillation expertise since 1870. Slow maceration and alcohol reduction process giving Royal Sedang its finesse.
