Xoriguer Gin, Gin de Menorca Reviews

5 Rating 374 Reviews
Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

A cult gin from Mahon in Menorca, Xoriguer is one of the only gins in the world, alongside Plymouth, to hold a geographical indication, Gin de Menorca. This gin, pronounced sho-ri-gair, was first created for British sailors stationed on the island between 1708 and 1802. Xoriguer is still made using traditional copper stills and high-quality wine alcohol (eau-de-vie), along with carefully selected juniper berries from nearby Mediterranean mountains and aromatic herbs. The herbs, a guarded secret of Xoriguer gin's original bouquet, are added at the start of each distillation process. The respect for tradition is such that the fuel still used today in the distillery remains unchanged.

I’m addicted to this gin ever since trying it in Menorca a few months ago. It barely needs a touch of lemon and soda (or try making an Pomada!) and you get yourself and incredibly delicious drink, the depth and subtlety of the flavours is just beautiful.

I found this gin in Mahon and liked it's distinctive flavour. I was delighted to find I could buy it in the UK from BASCO who were able to deliver quickly and at a reasonable price.
