When British sailors stationed in 1750s Menorca asked for gin, local farmers improvised with what the island actually grew: Cava grapes instead of grain. That workaround became Gin de Mahón, a protected Denominación de Origen distilled in wood-fired copper stills over two centuries old, harborside, with wild juniper dropped straight into the pot. The grape base gives round, faintly vinous warmth beneath forward juniper, Mediterranean herbs, and a saline whisper. Bottled at 38% ABV. Menorcans drink it as pomada, gin stirred with cloudy lemonade.
Tasting notes
Appearance: Clear with a platinum cast.
Aromas: Deeply aromatic, evoking lemongrass and cedar, with freshly cut flowers, all along with subtle juniper berries lurking beneath.
Palate: Starts off with juniper, followed by smooth citrus, finishing off roundly with a subtle saline touch. Wonderfully moreish and complex on the mid-palate.
Finish: Long lingering with an appealing freshness. Rich undertones of spice, black pepper and citrus zest.
Comments: Uniquely distinctive and delicious, as stunning as our island of Menorca...
