Craftsmanship & Story
Produced at the historic Fratelli Ferrero di Riccardo distillery in Piedmont, Latin Beach Gin draws on more than a century of Italian distilling expertise. Founded in 1906 and now operating as Torino Distillati, the family-run distillery combines traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation. Using advanced vacuum distillation, delicate fruit and citrus botanicals are gently extracted at lower temperatures, preserving their natural vibrancy while pure Mont Blanc water contributes exceptional smoothness and clarity.
Special Features
Latin Beach Gin stands apart through its unique fusion of Mediterranean and tropical botanicals. Exotic mango, papaya, passion fruit and coconut are balanced by premium Tuscan juniper and bright Italian citrus, creating a flavour profile unlike traditional gin styles. Vacuum distillation preserves delicate fruit oils that would otherwise be lost through heat, resulting in remarkable freshness and purity. Its striking Art Deco-inspired bottle further enhances its appeal as a rare and memorable gin.
