Ginger syrup 25 cl

Origin and Raw Materials: The selected ginger roots for this traditional recipe are chosen for their high content of natural essential oils and intense flavor profile. The family recipe blends this powerful fresh root juice with pure cane sugar and crystal-clear spring water, without any chemical flavor enhancers.

Producer: The artisanal house Le Clos de Laure was established in 2001 by Jean-Luc Bertin and his wife Marie-Laure. As a former pastry chef in prestigious luxury hotels along the Riviera, Jean-Luc Bertin infuses the brand with an uncompromising rigor, exactness, and taste structure that defines their gourmet creations, now crafted alongside their son Jérôme. While welcoming food lovers in their elegant shop located on Rue Verdi in Nice, they protect the pure gastronomic heritage of their land.

Production: The preparation is meticulously carried out at the family facility in Drap. The fresh ginger rhizomes are washed, finely crushed, and pressed to collect their raw juice. This aromatic base is then slowly cooked with pure cane sugar until it reaches the perfect syrup density, preserving its natural color and tingling spice without any artificial additives or colorants.

Tasting: This artisanal syrup displays a beautiful, brilliant opalescent golden color with a clear, smooth gloss. The texture is remarkably rich yet fluid, coating the palate elegantly. On the nose, a powerful and fresh aroma of freshly grated ginger, sharp citrus notes, and a warm peppery sweetness immediately arises. The palate enjoys a complex, melting balance where the natural heat of the spice blends beautifully with the smooth roundness of the sugar cane.

Tasting Advice & Keeping Potential: Serve this premium syrup chilled at a temperature around 6 to 8 degrees Celsius. Generally speaking, it is highly versatile for creating sophisticated cocktail reception drinks, drizzling over delicate frozen desserts, or adding a spicy touch to fresh water. More specifically, it will perfectly elevate a homemade pineapple sorbet, an exotic fresh fruit salad, or top a chilled glass of sparkling wine. It pairs magnificently with a dry selection of Champagne available at lavinothequelaroche.com. Once opened, keep refrigerated and consume within 3 months.

Awards & Environmental Certifications: Prepared in a fully certified HACCP facility, this artisanal recipe is strictly GMO-free. The producer focuses on clean agricultural methods by maintaining exclusive short supply chains with small-scale local partners along the French Riviera.
