Xoriguer

Spain

It is said that the recipe was invented in 1750 by a craftsman from Minorca who was inspired by the production of Dutch jenever and London dry gin. In 1940 Miguel Pons Justo decided to reproduce the recipe in his distillery in the port of Mahon, on the island of Menorca, where his family still continues to produce Xoriguer gin using the same method and jealously preserving the secrets of the artisan recipe. For its distillation the one shot method is used, that is a unique distillation in centenary copper stills warmed on a high heat.
