There are scents that are unforgettable. Sometimes all it takes is opening a bottle to unconsciously return to a damp forest, a long after-dinner conversation, or an old kitchen where time seemed to slow down. In 22 Rius, the ratafia doesn't start in the bottle, but in the herbs.
The first contact: nose and memory
Before the first sip, the ratafia is discovered with the nose. As you bring the glass closer, deep and enveloping notes appear, a mixture of natural sweetness and vegetal character that invites you to stop for a second longer than usual.
It's not an aggressive or flat scent. It's complex, elegant, and evolves with the air.
Selected, non-standardized herbs
The aromatic richness of Rius 22 ratafia comes from a careful selection of traditional herbs and botanicals, treated with respect and patience. We are not looking for one herb to dominate over the others, but for all of them to find their place.
The following are perceived on the nose:
Fresh herbaceous notes, reminiscent of scrubland and Mediterranean vegetation.
Balsamic, clean and slightly resinous nuances that add depth.
Subtle, never overpowering, spicy touches that round out the whole.
A warm and slightly sweet base, the result of slow maceration and resting.
A scent that evolves
Rius ratafia 22 is not static. Letting it rest for a few seconds in the glass allows the aromas to open up, settle, and gain nuance. What begins as forest and fresh grass gradually becomes warmer, rounder, and more intimate.
It's a ratafia that requires time, not haste.
Bottled tradition
Herbs have historically been much more than just an ingredient. They are transmitted knowledge, intuition, trial and error. At 22 Rius we respect that heritage, adapting it to a current perspective, without losing its essence.
Each bottle embodies that balance between tradition and discernment, between craftsmanship and quality craftsmanship.
A scent that speaks of origin
Rius ratafia 22 smells of territory, calm and authenticity. It does not seek to surprise through excess, but to convince through coherence.
Because in the end, aromas are not just smelled: They are remembered.
