Falterona 1654 Gin 0.5L

GIN FALTERONA1654 is born from the distillation of wild highland juniper, harvested by hand, with respect, on the slopes of Mount Falterona, in the heart of the Tuscan-Romagna Apennines.

1654 metres above sea level is the altitude of Mount Falterona, the symbol mountain of the 'Parco Nazionale delle Foreste Casentinesi', straddling the provinces of Forlì-Cesena, Arezzo and Florence.

A peculiarity of Monte Falterona is the high altitude wild juniper, from which we obtain our Gin. The Apennine microclimate and the altitude at which the plants ripen give rise to berries that are smaller than the traditional ones, which release an explosion of perfume and an intense, powerful and unique flavour.

Every year, we wait for the 'balsamic period' of the juniper, in early autumn, when the plant has the greatest production of active ingredients, to harvest the precious berries, which are then dried slowly, using the traditional wood-fired method.

Falterona1654 is a DISTILLED GIN, each botanical is infused and distilled separately, to obtain the best aromatic extraction. The distillates are then blended to create the unique blend of Falterona1654 Gin.
