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.

Bought for a friend who is a big fan of this Menorcan gin. It’s her favourite place to get away to and her favourite gin and after a very stressful 2 years for her working tirelessly as a key worker during the pandemic, she was delighted to receive this gin. Gin poured immediately with some lemon flavoured tonic as soon as she received it! I was so impressed with the speed of this item getting to me. Ordered on the Thursday and received by the Saturday. Thankyou so much!

This was a Xmas present for my daughter but it was my first ever gin tasted on the distillery tour in Mahon, Menorca over 57 years ago, and was fantastic. Great for a warm day with loads of ice and a little cloudy lemonade.

I have loved xoriguer for many years. It’s utterly different from other brands. It is so hard to find it in the UK so when we discovered this company we were delighted.
