Grey Goose Le Citron is a lemon-flavored French vodka made with lemons from the renowned Menton region, crafted by Cellar Master François Thibault.
For Le Citron, Grey Goose Cellar Master François Thibault begins with the finest lemons, including those grown in the world-renowned Menton region of France. Menton lemons are larger and thicker-skinned, with a milder, less acidic flavor than their western counterparts, and their thicker peels yield higher levels of essential oil — making them a favorite of respected French chefs. The lemons are concentrated into a complex citrus oil extract to preserve their bright flavor, then blended with Grey Goose vodka for a refined, citrus-forward flavored vodka.
