The story
Gin Volcànic was born from a collaboration between the historic Ratafia Russet and Beveland Distillers; sources report the project was launched around 2016 to showcase local botanicals and the Ratafia Russet tradition in the Garrotxa region.
Production philosophy
Bottling the identity of the territory: the idea is to highlight the plants and local traditions of the Garrotxa (local pure water, typical botanicals and the volcanic imagery) through a process that combines traditional macerations and careful distillation.
Territory
Zona Volcànica de la Garrotxa (province of Girona), Catalonia, Spain.
Awards and recognition
Silver medal — San Francisco World Spirits Competition (2018); Sigillo Girona Excel·lent (2018-2019).
Production method
The product is obtained by applying three distinct macerations of the botanicals (including maceration of green walnuts), followed by separate distillations in a traditional copper pot still with a swan neck; sterilized volcanic stones from the area are used in the boiler during distillation.
Distillation
Triple distillation: three separate macerations of the botanicals, each distilled separately in a swan-neck copper pot still; sterilized volcanic stones are placed in the boiler during distillation.
