This variation of Gin Eva from Mallorca features a rather special ingredient - olive. Specifically La Mallorquina olives, which are only found on the island. Pomace from this olive is steeped in alcohol for a few weeks, then distilled and blended with a juniper distillate and a touch of coriander. The dream gin for a Martini? perhaps, perhaps...
Enjoyably savoury and subtly coastal, with just enough juniper intensity and vegetal coriander to keep the olive from becoming overpowering.
A beautifully simple but delicious gin and what a fantastic Martini it makes!
