Porfidio Agave Dry Gin

Description

Porfidio Agave Dry Gin is an unusual gin built on a pure agave distillate base — infused with aromatic cacti and agave flowers from the Mexican desert alongside Italian juniper berries, then aged five years in chestnut casks for an exceptionally smooth finish. 47% ABV.Rather than a neutral grain base, Porfidio distills its gin from agave spirit, giving it a character that will feel familiar to tequila lovers while remaining firmly a juniper-led gin. Agave flowers, tuna (prickly pear) cactus flowers, and pitaya cactus flowers join juniper in the botanical bill, and five years in chestnut-wood casks round it into a smooth sipping or mixing gin.Tasting Notes
