Duna Mirante - from the costal dunes of the area “Monaco Mirante” near the town of Campomarino (commune of Maruggio) – in the Italian southern region of Puglia. The botanicals grow few steps from the Ionian Sea, nearby these beautiful dunes: a natural sanctuary where the sea breeze glides among the dunes, merging with the perfumes of the wild Mediterranean herbs.
HARVEST:
Manual picking, selecting the best botanicals.
DISTILLATION METHOD:
According to the tradition of London Dry Gin.
The juniper berries and other aromatic plants are immersed in a solution of water and grain alcohol in a still. They are left to rest at 40°-50°C for three days before distillation. Distillation is carried out using the discontinuous method in traditional pot stills and in small batches. Ethyl alcohol, during its evaporation, carries with it the aromatic components of the herbs. The distillate obtained is filtered, refrigerated and then mixed with spring water from the Dolomites, until it reaches 42% alcohol volume. It is then left to rest for 7 days, before it is filtered and bottled.
