Vallombrosa Dry Gin: monastic excellence in the heart of Tuscany

Vallombrosa Dry Gin is an artisanal distillate produced by the Benedictine monks of the Abbey of Vallombrosa, located at an altitude of 1000 metres in the woods of the Tuscan Apennines. This gin stems from a centuries-old tradition, handed down since 1028, that combines spirituality, nature and herbal knowledge. Its recipe calls for the exclusive use of wild juniper berries hand-picked in the surroundings of Sansepolcro and Pieve Santo Stefano (AR), crushed in the abbey's mortars according to the ancient monastic method.

The result is a London Dry Gin of the highest quality, with a clean, dry and balsamic aromatic profile. Monobotanic distillation enhances the resinous notes of juniper, with nuances of bark and undergrowth that evoke the natural environment in which it was born. Intense and penetrating aromas are perceived on the nose, while on the palate the taste is decisive, clean and persistent, with an alcohol content of 47% giving structure without excess.

Perfect to enjoy neat to appreciate its purity, Vallombrosa Dry Gin is also ideal in blending for classic cocktails such as Martini, Negroni or Gin Tonic, where it stands out for its elegance and depth. Available in 70 cl bottles from selected wine shops and online retailers, it represents an Italian excellence capable of combining history, authenticity and quality.
