Xoriguer is a classic gin from Mahon, Menorca, first made for British sailors whom were stationed on the island in the 18th century who were hankering for some gin (happens to all of us every once in a while). Rather than using a grain alcohol, Xoriguer is made from distilled wine and features juniper (obviously) as well as a secret selection of herbs which only the Pons family (the folks behind Xoriguer) could tell you what's included. It is briefly stored in casks before being bottled.

Visited the distillery when I was in Mahon, Menorca. Great flavor of the Mediterranean, a very refreshing gin with a great history.
I have been drinking this gin for over 20years now and discovered it when visiting Menorca on holiday. No other gin tastes as nice as this one and it has always been my favourite. It has such a distinctive taste and makes other gins seem ordinary.
The best gin I’ve ever tasted, and I’ve tasted quite a few. Lovely Mediterranean gin.
We went to manorca on holiday and drank this gin and now nothing else taste as good its a class obove the rest
Lovely! A Smooth and rounded flavour and as highly desirable as a good London gin. Locally, it's served with tonic water or fizzy lemon like Fanta (called Pomada) But my favourite is with fizzy lime, like a gin gimlet... Delicious! Also recommended is a visit to the Xoriguer distillery in Mahon and sample some (or all) of the many flavours... Especially the licorice one!
