Meet the Makers

"I literally fell in love with gin and started studying its distillation methods, production, ingredients, styles, history and so on. I thus came to discover the vacuum distillation method at lower temperatures. During that process I decided that I wanted to create a 100% Sicilian gin. And so I did it!" - Dario Rinaldi, Founder & Distiller
