Distilerias Xoriguer Mahon Gin (700ml)
Distilerias Xoriguer Mahon Gin (700ml)
Dating back to 1750, this may be Europe's oldest gin. It is based on a wine brandy and distilled in a wood-fired still with a single 9 hour pass.
Clear with a platinum cast.
AROMASDeeply aromatic, evoking lemongrass and cedar, with freshly cut flowers, all along with subtle juniper berries lurking beneath.
PALATEStarts off with juniper, followed by smooth citrus, finishing off roundly with a subtle saline touch. Wonderfully moreish and complex on the mid-palate.
FINISHLong lingering with an appealing freshness. Rich undertones of spice, black pepper and citrus zest.

- EGElizabeth G.Verified BuyerI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars3 months agoAnother Schneider's suggestion for the win
Whenever I visit DC, I make my pilgrimage to Schneider's with a staff consult on what should be my next gin to try. Mahon did not disappoint. Made for an exotic (but not herbaceous or floral) G and T. Excited to try it in Negroni or martini next trip since it has to stay at my friend's house on the Hill until I return.

Very tasty and light. Love that the liquor is grape-based!
