Bordiga Occitan Gin - Italy
1.0 Liter This incredibly aromatic expression of gin has a complex hit of angelica root, juniper, cardamom and citrus that leap from the glass. This is dry yet quite expressive distinctly different from other dry gins on offer. D&M Tasting Notes 42% ABV
At the end of the nineteenth century Pietro Bordiga owned a famous bar in Turin. He decided to use his knowledge of botanical flavorings and the extraction of essential oils to open a distillery, and he decided to locate it in a city near the mountains where the wild plants used to make amaro and other spirits grew. He chose the city of Cuneo, a little over an hour south of Turin and close to the Occitan Alps. The climate here, influenced the mountains and by proximity to the ocean just over the Alps, creates herbs that are particularly rich in essential oils and aromas. Importer Notes
