Grifu Old Gin is a distilled spirit of excellence born in the heart of Italy, where distilling tradition merges with an innovative approach to spirit creation. Each bottle of Grifu Old Gin is the result of a meticulous selection of botanicals, including prominent juniper, lavender, and citrus, which are gently infused to achieve a unique and unmistakable aroma.

This gin stands out for its elegant character and smoothness, making it versatile and suitable for various types of cocktails, yet impeccable even when enjoyed neat, perhaps accompanied by a slice of lemon to enhance its citrus notes. On the nose, Grifu Old Gin offers a rich aromatic bouquet, where juniper notes blend perfectly with floral and citrusy ones.

On the palate, the complexity of this gin is fully revealed, with a balanced structure and an aromatic persistence that always invites another sip. The finesse of the botanicals used gives Grifu Old Gin a smoothness that is rarely found in other gins of this category.

Ideal for lovers of high-quality gin who are looking for a product capable of telling the story of its production territory through taste. Every sip of Grifu Old Gin is a sensory journey into Italian distilling traditions, a true pleasure for the palate and the soul.
