Description
On the banks of the Minho River in the Valenca area, lush wild flora grows amid a series of streams and hamlets that captivate nature and landscape lovers alike.
Joao Guterres strolled through the countryside and decided to create a gin with the herbs and fruits he had collected. – However, something was missing, something special, and so Joao waited until the end of October, for a unique fruit reserved only for Valenca.
He waited for the fruit of the pericos. Pericos are pear-like fruits that only grow on trees in Valenca, the “escramboeiros”.
A 90-day maceration, the use of rye and barley and a slow triple distillation give this gin its unique character.
Botanicals: Perico (Portuguese Pyrus), dill, poppy, lavender, oranges, lemons, catnip, willow leaves, laurel, elder, rosemary, Ruprechtskraut, eucalyptus, lemon balm, lemon bush, blackberries.
