The historic Monte Grappa distillery has been producing great distillates in Bassano del Grappa since 1957 and it is here that for some years now Roberto Marton has decided to create his own line of Made in Italy Gins. Thanks to his experience producing and distributing liqueurs and spirits, Roberto has decided to focus on artisanal production following the ancient Bathtub method, i.e. through a long cold infusion of the best possible quality botanicals. Although this method only produces small quantities (about 12,000 bottles in total), it is always of a high quality standard which is reflected in the brand’s success in Italy and all over Europe. Big Gino is a Venetian gin produced with traditional botanicals to which pomelo (the oldest citrus fruit cultivated by man) and allspice berries (also known as Jamaica pepper) have been added. The result is a soft, fresh distillate, with clear citrus and spicy notes, perfect as a base for cocktails or even better neat on the rocks, after dinner, during meditation.
