Amázzoni Gin

Gin description

Amazzoni is not only the first ever premium gin to have in Brazil its own dedicated distillery, but also the spirit better than anyone else greeting in his manufacture this country’s pure essence. Juniper berries, of course, and then pink pepper, laurel, lemon, tangerine, coriander are the shell in which five ever previously unreleased Amazonian botanicals find a shelter, then from there overflowing at first taste: cocoa, Brazilian chestnut, maxixe, victoria regia, and cipó cravo are their names: about their flavour, you’ll let us know. All those eleven ingredients are macerated at natural in cereal alcohol and the out-coming infusion is then spilled - being the proportion calibrated by Captain Tato’s Giovannoni top secret recipe - in the majestic copper alembic, the first ever designed and realized in Brazil, beating hart and pride of La Cachoeira. Herein the mixture is taken to boiling point, dried out, cooled down until it turns back to liquid status. And it’s only now that, cathartically, Naia takes the lead, diluting the spirit with spring water, down to the 42% alc/vol strength of our smooth gin. Not completely dry, not too much aromatic: just unique, in case, since the very first tasting.
