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 very best Gin money can buy. Different but definitely not to be shunned for that. I would encourage most heartily anyone who hasn't tried it to do so. And buy from BASCO. Wonderful service and so many other superb products. You'll be sipping the delights of Menorca and Mallorca within 24 hours!

I normally drink Bombay Sapphire, but saw this on a TV programme and thought i'd try it. When my bottle arrived, i tried it neat, to get all the different flavours. I loved it, the botanicals all came through really well but the overall taste was amazing, the base flavour being grape not grain makes such a difference. It is such a smooth gin and i enjoyed it that much i had to order 2 more bottles.

Love this unique gin - so many happy Menorcan memories. Thrilled to find a U.K. company to deliver to my door - less than 24hrs from order! Plus, help from Javier during on-line ordering - priceless. Will be buying more Spanish memories soon
