Xoriguer Mahon Gin - Review & Tasting Notes
About Xoriguer Gin
Xoriguer Gin (pronounced 'sho-ri-gair') is produced in Mahon on Menorca, Spain. A family run business, 60% of Xoriguer Gin stays in Menorca and 40% is exported. The gin is distilled in-house using grape alcohol rather than the typical grain alcohol, and the botanicals remain a closely guarded family secret. The Gin Guide Review Xoriguer Gin is a characterful gin that delivers excellent value for its price. The grapes in the base alcohol intentionally don't come through, but help give Xoriguer gin a distinct personality. It's floral and aromatic on the nose, with herbaceous and warm notes to taste. Pick up a bottle if you find it. - Paul Jackson, 2016 Buy Xoriguer Mahon Gin
