Juniper | Bextract™ DS | Juniperus Communis is a DOUBLE STRENGTH Supercritical C02 extraction from Juniper Berries. Junipers are members of the ancient cypress family. They made their earliest appearance during the Triassic period, 250 million years go. Juniper communis, can be native to Europe, Asia, and North America. Gin distillers prefer juniper berries from Tuscany, Morocco, and eastern Europe. Much of it is still wild harvested.
Juniper Berries contain α-Pinene, which imparts a pine or rosemary flavour, as well as myrcene, which is found in cannabis, hops and wild thyme. Limonene, the lively citrus flavour common in many herbs and spices is present as well. It is no wonder that juniper is combined with coriander, lemon peel and other spices to make gin - the same compounds are found in many of those other plants, just in different combinations.
Supercritical CO2 juniper Bextract™ DS (Double Strength) is particularly vibrant and will give a zest and freshness to the flavour profile that is just not possible with distillation processes which “cook” the juniper. A real opportunity for product differentiation.
