Distillerias Xoriguer Description
Using the same centuries old recipe, our Gin sings of our breathtaking environment an envied way of life. A standard for world-class craft Gin, we are proud to accompany our iconic spirti in its new journey.
MAHÓN’S NAVAL BASE TEEMED WITH THIRSTY BRITISH SAILORS. AROUND 1750 CRAFTSMEN OBLIGED BY LOCALLY PRODUCING GIN. THE DISTINCTIVE “MAHÓN GIN RECIPE” USING GRAPE BASED SPIRITS WAS SOON REPUTED FOR ITS SMOOTHNESS. BY WHEN BRITAIN LEFT, GIN HAD LONG SINCE BECOME OUR ISLAND DRINK...
MAHÓN GIN WAS FIRST SOLD IN STONEWARE JUGS, WITH A LOOP LATER INTRODUCED FOR EASIER HANDLING. THE “CANECA” WAS BORN, EVOLVING INTO ITS PRESENT GREEN GLASS FORMAT THAT IS OUR UNMISTAKABLE BRAND SYMBOL …
ARTISANAL AND TRUE TO OUR CRAFT, WE HAVE CHANGED VERY LITTLE. WE STILL OPERATE IN THE HARBOUR FRONT DISTILLERY REBUILT IN 1910 BY MIGUEL PONS ON THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE ORIGINAL ONE DESTROYED BY FIRE.
PRODUCTION IN SMALL BATCHES USING 200 YEAR OLD WOOD FIRED COPPER STILLS (700 LITERS EACH) DEFINES US AS AN AUTHENTIC SMALL BATCH DISTILLER.
