Tangerine Gin Premium Citrus Reticulata

Gin description

Presented in a distinctive orange bottle bearing the words ‘Premium Citrus Reticulata Gin’, Tangerine Gin is the result of two years of development, the brainchild of Portimão native Eduardo Peixinho Reis. It was when he joined forces with local producer Luís Sequeira, the man behind the Talurdinha aguardente firewaters and liqueurs in the village that has been distilling as far back as 1747, that the Algarve’s first and only gin was born. It’s in a distillery between Lagoa and Silves that Luís Sequeira produces this citrusy gin, first launched in late 2014. London Dry in style, it is triple distilled in copper steam boilers, with nine different dehydrated botanicals added to the spirit: juniper, tangerine, orange, lemon, almond, black pepper (the only botanical not from Portugal), liquorice, angelica and coriander seed.
