Grey Goose Le Citron
Grey Goose's French lemon vodka: soft and full-bodied, with natural citrus from essential oils of lemons, including lemons from Menton. For an elegant Lemon Drop, a Vodka Martini with a twist, or simply with tonic.
Lemon, the French way
Grey Goose Le Citron starts with the same approach as the Original: soft winter wheat from Picardy, distilled five times and blended with spring water from Gensac-la-Pallue in the Cognac region. Then comes the lemon, not as a candy-like flavor but from essential oils of lemons, including lemons from Menton on the Côte d'Azur.
The result is a lemon vodka that stays soft and full-bodied, with balanced citrus rather than a sharp, sour kick. At 40%, it has the same strength as the Original. Grey Goose describes Le Citron primarily as a cocktail ingredient, but it's just as good neat or simply mixed.
In brief
Soft, full-bodied and naturally citrusy
Lightly sweet
A light, sweet nose with fresh lemon running through it. Subtle, without the perfumed aroma of many lemon vodkas.
Soft and full-bodied
Soft and full-bodied, with balanced citrus from lemon oil. Rounded rather than sour.
Warm, fresh, and subtle
A warm finish that still feels fresh, with a subtle lemon note that fades gently.
Grey Goose Le Citron's flavor profile, slightly chilled. In a cocktail, its full, rounded citrus notes stand out most.
Three elegant ways to enjoy Le Citron
Le Citron is a vodka for refined, crisp drinks: few ingredients, good glassware, and plenty of ice.
Le Citron Martini
60 ml Grey Goose Le Citron and 10 ml dry vermouth, stirred with plenty of ice and strained into a chilled Nick & Nora glass. Squeeze a lemon twist over the glass.
Go to the Martini →Le Citron & tonic
45 ml Grey Goose Le Citron with 150 ml tonic in a large copa full of ice, finished with a long lemon twist. Lighter and smoother than a gin and tonic.
Copa glasses →Lemon Drop
45 ml Grey Goose Le Citron, 20 ml triple sec, 20 ml lemon juice, and 10 ml simple syrup, shaken with ice and strained into a coupe with a half sugar rim.
Go to recipe →Classic cocktails with Le Citron
Le Citron works best in classics where lemon already plays a role, because it makes the citrus rounder and fuller.
Lemon Drop Martini
Lemon vodka, triple sec, and lemon juice with a sugar rim. Smoother and fuller with Le Citron.
Vodka Martini
Vodka and dry vermouth, stirred and ice-cold. Le Citron gives it an inbuilt lemon twist.
Vodka Gimlet
Vodka with lime juice and sugar, shaken until smooth. Lemon and lime complement each other.
Vodka Collins
The Collins with vodka instead of gin: lemon juice, sugar, and soda over ice.The right glass for Grey Goose Le Citron
A Nick & Nora for the Martini, a coupe for the Lemon Drop, a large copa for Le Citron with tonic, and a slim highball glass for the Collins.
