What Makes the Original Mediterranean Gin Recipe Unique?

When a gin is labeled as the "original Mediterranean recipe," it means that it is made with botanicals that are native to the Mediterranean region. This includes juniper berries, which are required for all gins, as well as other ingredients such as olives, lemons, oranges, thyme, rosemary, and basil.


The Mediterranean region has a long history of distilling gin, and Mediterranean gins tend to have a more complex flavor profile than other types of gin. This is because they are typically made with a wider variety of botanicals, and the botanicals are often sourced from local farms.

How is Mediterranean Gin Different from Other Gin Varieties?

The main difference between Mediterranean gin and other types of gin is the use of a wider variety of botanicals, and the botanicals are often sourced from local farms. This gives Mediterranean gins a more complex flavor profile than other types of gin.

 

Another difference between Mediterranean gin and other types of gin is the production process. Mediterranean gins are often distilled in smaller batches and using more traditional methods. This results in a more artisanal product.
