The taste of life
It’s clear to us in the Mediterranean. We’re more about free time than rushing around, natural products and never-ending after dinner conversations. Because getting into a good conversation and losing all sense of time is priceless.
Gin Mare was testing the boundaries of Gin long before everyone else hopped on the bandwagon. With rosemary, thyme, olive, and basil included in the botanical line up it’s savoury and unusual, balanced and complex. It’s also a Spanish Gin made in Spain, something that should, in due time, help it to establish itself firmly in one of the world’s biggest Gin markets
Origin.
Each bottle of Gin Mare is made at our distillery, a thirteenth century chapel located in an ancient fishing village between the Costa Brava and the Costa Dorada.
Made in the small Spanish fishing town of Vilanova, just outside the city of Barcelona, Gin Mare epitomises the Mediterranean spirit. Crammed with local Mediterranean botanicals and positively singing a pretty little sunshine ditty, it’s a true mark of luxury, with rich oils filling the cheeks and sending the drinker on something of an adventure.
Gin Mare in detail.
Becoming a gin expert is about more than just drinking it. By going one step further to understand the ‘hows’ and the ‘whys’ you’ll become a real expert. Scent, colour, taste, reactions, sensations… There’s a reason for everything. Want to know what they are? We at Gin Mare have nothing to hide.
Aromatic
Botanicals such as rosemary, lend Gin Mare a woody scent known as pinenes, which is a key odorant also found in juniper berries, the primary ingredient for most gins.
Juniper berries contain another herbal, aromatic note known as beta-myrcene, which is also present in basil and thyme. Italian sweet basil imparts certain anisic, balsamic (cinnamon-like) and camphor-like aromatic notes to our gin. These three notes are present in varying degrees across all varieties of basil.
