New London Light Aegean Sky Non-Alcoholic Aperitivo
A non-alcoholic aperitif for the spritz drinker with a taste for something different.
Capturing the essence of the vibrant Mediterranean coast, ‘Aegean Sky’ is an innovative and complex non-alcoholic aperitif that creatively combines flavours of sun-soaked bitter citrus and olive.
Inspired by adventures in pursuit of golden horizons, ‘Aegean Sky’ captures the essence of the vibrant Mediterranean coast to create a flavour profile reminiscent of the region’s finest citrus and olive groves. Every sip of this creative combination of sun-soaked bitter citrus and olive takes you on a journey into a new world of flavour.
Harnessing our Master Distiller Jason Nickels’ extensive knowledge and understanding of flavour, foraging, botany, and of course distillation, we’re proud to craft as much of the process at our waterside distillery as possible.
To create our non-alcoholic aperitifs, we make a ‘botanical steep’ using neutral grain spirit and water. The use of alcohol is an important part of the process to extract and carry flavour. The steep is then distilled in our rotary vacuum still; a process that removes the alcohol without removing the flavour. This creates a highly concentrated core flavour distillate, which acts as the backbone of ‘Aegean Sky’. This core flavour distillate is then carefully blended with further natural flavours and stabilised with the unusual use of kombucha.
