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.

The most delicious Gin I have ever tasted which provides lovely memories of holidays to Menorca. I'm so pleased I am able to purchase it here in the UK.

First tasted this in Menorca, a local drink called Pomade. Basically gin lemon and lemonade. It’s lush. Doesn’t quite taste the same as it does out there, but that’s probably as much to do with the atmosphere as much as anything else.
