GIN EVA La Mallorquina

Gin Eva is the spirit of the nature of one of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean. The citrus fruits of the Sóller valley or the centenary olive trees of the Tramuntana mountain range together with juniper, are the protagonists. The end result is not intended to be complex. On the contrary, simplified recipes are sought that focus on what is important.

All ingredients and botanicals are macerated in neutral alcohol shortly after harvest and then gently distilled in classic copper stills. Since many of the ingredients are seasonal, all ingredients are distilled separately. The final gin is blended later, after the individual distillates have rested for a few months to develop their full aroma. Mallorquina is the traditional olive variety of the island of Mallorca. It is a mutation of the empeldre olive tree that can only be found on the island. The trees are centuries old and grow in the Tramuntana mountains.
