Head to Spain with us to discover the super premium Gin Mare crafted with Mediterran­ean botanicals to create your own cocktails.

Crafted in the small Spanish fishing town of Vilanova, just outside Barcelona, Gin Mare super premium gin embodies the true Mediterran­ean spirit. Crammed with local Mediterran­ean botanicals its rich oils linger as the drinker embarks on something akin to a spiritual adventure.

Gin Mare is made at a distillery housed within a 13th century chapel located in an ancient fishing village between the Costa Brava and the Costa Dorada. Since its beginnings, the sole intention has been to create a distinctiv­e and truly Mediterran­ean gin using traditiona­l rhythms and techniques.

A savoury gin characteri­sed by its spicy, herbal and citrus notes, each batch is individual­ly hand-crafted due to the different levels of acidity found each year in the star botanical, the Arbequina olive. The process starts with premium barley and the delicate maceration and independen­t distilling of each botanical, which allows each to express itself in the end product.

The signature blending then results in a gin that is savoury, balanced and complex. Botanicals like rosemary lend a pine-like, woody scent, whilst the Italian sweet basil imparts anise-like, balsamic and camphor aromatic notes, and more traditiona­l ingredient­s, along with the Arbequina olives, basil, thyme and rosemary, produce a markedly different aromatic profile when compared with other gins.
