Xoriguer Gin, 5cl, Gin de Menorca Reviews

4.2 Rating 38 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 are the guarded secret of Xoriguer gin's original bouquet, known only to the Pons family.

Love this gin - discovered it in Menorca. Hadn't been able to find it here so was really pleased when I discovered the Basco site. Good in a G & T but also delicious & refreshing served as a long drink , as they say in Menorca - POMADA. The Spanish tend to use the cans of Fanta , but I mix it with a sparkling and very lemony , cloudy lemonade , really refreshing !!
