Nolet's Silver Dry Gin

Nolet’s Silver is a refined and daring expression of gin—a silkier, more floral spirit that trades pine for petals and stone fruit. It’s distinctive, elegant, and refreshingly modern—perfect for those who want gin with flair.

🌿 Origins & Heritage

• Crafted in Schiedam, Holland, by the Nolet family distillers since 1691—now led by 10th-generation Carolus Nolet—with a legacy that includes the launch of Ketel One Vodka 

• Launched in 2010 as a modern reinterpretation of gin, blending tradition with innovative botanicals for a 21st-century audience .

🍃 Botanicals & Production

• Distilled from wheat spirit and includes classic botanicals—juniper, citrus, orris, liquorice—alongside standout ingredients: Turkish rose, white peach, and raspberry 

• Each botanical is individually macerated and distilled in small copper pot stills like the bespoke "Ketel 19," then blended into the gin at 47.6% ABV 

👃 Aroma

• Explodes with floral sweetness: prominent Turkish rose backed by peach blossom, lavender, melissa, and apple mint

• Only a gentle hint of juniper, allowing fruit and florals to take center stage 

👅 Flavor & Texture

• Smooth and rich with vivid stone fruit (peach, apple), sun-ripened raspberry, and nuanced cardamom, pepper, coriander, and gentle citrus .

• Surprisingly creamy despite high strength—softens beautifully on the palate, then reveals subtle pine-juniper warmth on the finish .

🔚 Finish

• A dry yet elegant finish: juniper makes its polite entrance late, while cardamom spice lingers with a clean, crisp finale .

🍸 Best Uses

• Exceptional neat or on the rocks—a standout sipper among gins 

• Ideal for floral-forward cocktails: vibrant G&Ts, delicate Martinis with lemon or orange bitters, and refined highballs

🌟 Style & Appeal

• A soft, fruit-forward floral gin that subverts juniper dominance, appealing to gin lovers and vodka drinkers alike 

• A modern classic praised for redefining gin—think “gin and stone fruit” rather than pine

Nolet's Silver Dry Gin is a modern, floral-forward spirit crafted in Schiedam, Netherlands, by the Nolet family, whose distilling heritage dates back to 1691. This contemporary gin distinguishes itself with a unique blend of botanicals, including Turkish rose, white peach, and raspberry, each individually macerated and distilled to create its distinctive flavor profile. Bottled at 47.6% ABV (95.2 proof), Nolet's Silver offers a smooth, velvety texture with a long, elegant finish, making it an excellent choice for both classic and innovative cocktails.

The Nolet family has been distilling gin since 1691 at their Schiedam, Holland distillery and make the claim of being the oldest surviving distiller in the country that is the home of gin, namely genever. They are not only known for their gins, however, as in 1983 the now 10th generation of family in the business released the very popular Ketel One Vodka. 

A distillery with such history is an unlikely source for one of the new styles of gin that has a rather noticeable lack of juniper, the key botanical to defining gin. Instead, Nolet's Silver Dry Gin is fruit and floral forward (Turkish rose, peach, and raspberry) and is a fascinating spirit which, depending on your take on gin, is either a good or a bad trait.

This gin has a soft, delicate, yet rich profile that begins with the rose-laden fragrance accented with fresh peach and the slightest hint of pine. On the palate, this gin follows suit with raspberry shining through ever so gently and an interesting, gentle mix of juniper, orris root, and licorice hanging out in the background. The dry finish is where the juniper becomes less transparent, leaving the experience with welcomed familiarity.
