Gin description
When the Spanish colonised what today is Argentina they brought the jesuits to assist on the evangelisation of the local tribes. The jesuits learnt from the guarani tribes the use of the mate leaf and started the first formal plantations. The town of Apostoles in Misiones was the first plantation and is today the national capital of Yerba Mate in Argentina. The New Word Gins move away from the strong wintery flavours of junipers and use it merely as a platform for more regional and contemporary notes. Príncipe es una expresión latina del Gin de Nuevo Mundo. In all the meanings of the term. It is the first Latin American Premium Gin. It’s main botanicals are yerba mate, pink grapefruit, peppermint and eucalyptus. And it’s story is strongly related whit the New World.
