The Immortelle Flower: The Star Ingredient

What makes Melifera gin stand out in the world of French gin is its star ingredient: the Immortelle flower. You may not be familiar with it yet, but this little plant, also known as Helichrysum Italicum, will soon become your new favorite. It’s the Immortelle flower that gives Melifera gin its unique flavor, with notes that are both floral and delicate.

Hand-harvested from coastal dunes, the Immortelle flower is a true gem for lovers of natural flavors. It has the rare characteristic of never wilting, even after being picked—hence its name. Beyond its poetic symbolism, the Immortelle flower brings a distinctive touch that defines the charm of Melifera organic gin.

Its fragrance, both floral and slightly spicy, harmonizes perfectly with the other carefully selected botanicals. This masterful balance creates a refined tasting experience, perfect for any occasion—whether you’re sipping a gin and tonic on a sunny terrace or enjoying a more sophisticated cocktail.
