Distillation and production

Distillation and production

Production method

Production carried out in Argentina (Mendoza) through botanical infusion distillation; sources indicate the use of column stills and, for some expressions, redistillation in copper pot stills. Some references report cold filtration and blending procedures to achieve the final alcohol strength.

Distillation

Column distillation with botanical infusion; some expressions are then redistilled in a copper pot still. Production is linked to local facilities (e.g. Sol de los Andes) and the Santos Espíritus project by Tato Giovannoni.

Producer history Principe de los Apostoles

The project originates from the idea and recipe of renowned Argentine mixologist Renato "Tato" Giovannoni. The gin was developed as an expression of a 'New World gin' with a South American botanical identity and has historically been produced in facilities in the Mendoza province. In recent years production has been associated with local operations such as Sol de los Andes and, more recently, the Santos Espíritus distilling project promoted by Giovannoni.

Production philosophy

To valorizethe native botanicals and Argentine identity within the gin segment, combining the traditional juniper base with local ingredients (notably yerba mate) to deliver distinctive aromatic profiles oriented towards contemporary cocktails.

Territory

Argentina. Production and distillation linked to the province of Mendoza (Luján de Cuyo and Valle de Uco).
