Traditional Style Gin: the classic essence of the botanical spirit
The Traditional Style Gin represents the heart and soul of the gin tradition, evoking its long history that dates back to the 17th century. This spirit finds its roots in the Netherlands, where it was originally created as a kind of medicinal remedy before conquering England and, subsequently, the entire world. Thanks to its versatility and distinctive aromatic profile, traditional gin has established itself as an essential element in every collection of spirits.
The base of this gin consists of high-quality neutral alcohol, which is infused with a carefully curated selection of botanicals, among which the essential juniper stands out, giving the gin its characteristic balsamic and resinous aroma. Other classic botanical ingredients include coriander, angelica root, citrus peel, and iris root, which together create a harmonious balance of flavors. The production of Traditional Style Gin is not limited to a single location; in fact, many regions of the world offer unique variations that respect local traditions while maintaining the classic essence that defines this style.
The organoleptic profile of a Traditional Style Gin is a true sensory journey. On the nose, one is greeted by intense aromas of juniper, accompanied by citrus and spicy notes that tantalize the senses. On the palate, the complexity of the gin manifests with a light yet well-structured body, where the notes of juniper blend with a touch of citrus sweetness and subtle spiciness, often completed by a dry and clean finish. The freshness and vibrancy of this gin make it an ideal protagonist for classic cocktails like the Gin & Tonic or the Martini, but it is also perfect to enjoy neat to fully appreciate its purity and refinement.
