Gin Maira – 50 cl | 42% Vol
Maira Gin is produced using the cold-compound method, where wild Italian juniper berries are macerated alongside 17 botanicals sourced exclusively from the Cuneo valleys one of which lends its name to this distinctive spirit.
In addition to alpine herbs, Maira Gin features a touch of organic wildflower honey, just like all its ingredients, adding smoothness and a balanced acidity.
The defining choice behind Maira’s recipe was a commitment to using only local alpine botanicals, creating a true mountain gin. While this meant forgoing many traditional gin ingredients, the challenge was met by meticulously perfecting the formula. The result is a harmonious blend where the botanicals balance beautifully, with the honey adding a rounded softness.
On the nose, Maira Gin is highly aromatic, with herbaceous and balsamic notes. The palate is complex and rich, featuring balsamic and fruity tones that define its bold yet elegant character. These qualities make it an excellent choice for mixing in cocktails, while also standing out as a superb sipping gin.
