Xoriguer Gin, Gin de Menorca Reviews

5 Rating 377 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.

Quite lovely and unusual gin. I came across it in Menorca about twenty years ago and always wanted to have it in my home again. Far too expensive to buy here, but the other day I treated myself and I am very pleased I did.

For us Gin Xoriguer is Menorca ! we have been visiting the Island for many years, on our first visit there we went to their distillery in Mahon and had our introduction to Gin Xoriguer, we were hooked ! We still make a "Pamada" our first drink when we go back to Menorca, the taste is unique and instantly makes us feel "at home."
