Description

Gin Macaja is a spirit that enchants with its intense vegetal notes: juniper, dill, sandalwood, grilled mushrooms and tubers emerge at first impact. On the palate, a symphony of spices, with an evident presence of pepper, harmonizes with the aromatic character of juniper and coriander. Soft and structured, it stands out for its persistence and refreshing finish.

The Botanicals

Gin Macaja botanicals celebrate the biodiversity of the territory and represent a rare combination, expertly blended to create a gin with an unmistakable aroma. The journey to select them begins in Piedmont and extends to Liguria, following the suggestive path of the Via del Sale , a historic network of itineraries that connects the Piedmontese and French Alps to the Ligurian Sea.

Along this route, many of the unique botanicals that make Gin Macaja inimitable have been selected. Descending towards the coast, the journey is completed with the freshness of citrus fruits: chinotto, Pernambuco oranges and Gavenola lemons add a vibrant, Mediterranean note.
