Production method

The gin is described as composed of 21 botanicals, some hand-harvested in the "botanical sanctuary" on the hills of Portofino; each botanical is selected and distilled separately before being blended. Technical sources and product data sheets report the use of a copper still (pot still) and also the use of low-temperature vacuum distillation technologies; it is also stated that the distillate is obtained from neutral alcohol made from Italian wheat and that the product is distilled and bottled in Italy.

Distillation

Light maceration of the botanicals; each botanical distilled separately and the distillates then blended. Use of a copper still (pot still) and, according to brand technical documentation, also low-temperature vacuum distillation technologies; some technical sheets also mention the use of a column.
