Ginepraio Organic Amphora Navy Strength Gin 700ML

Ginepraio Organic Amphora Navy Strength Gin stands out as Italy's first Navy Strength gin, distilled using the classic London Dry method and then aged for 120 days in cocciopesto amphorae. Intriguingly, the gin's name "Ginepraio" has a double meaning in Tuscany - it literally translates to "juniper thicket," but locals also use it colloquially to describe a tricky or thorny situation, adding a layer of cultural depth to this potent spirit.

Nose: Intense juniper bursts forth, accompanied by vibrant citrus notes of lemon and orange peel. Herbal aromas of coriander and angelica root mingle with delicate floral hints of dog rose and helichrysum.

Palate: Powerful and spicy, with a bold juniper core. The high alcohol content (57% ABV) provides a warm, full-bodied mouthfeel. Crisp citrus flavors balance the earthy, herbal notes. The unique amphora aging imparts subtle mineral undertones.

Finish: Exceptionally long and warming. The juniper and spice linger, gradually fading to reveal soft floral notes and a hint of Mediterranean herbs. A subtle saltiness reminiscent of sea air persists, leaving a clean, dry finish.
