Palma Gin - Award Winning Contemporary Style Gin, 70cl 46.6%ABV

Product Information

The use of locally sourced ingredients is paramount for Palma, ensuring that each bottle contains a genuine taste of the island and its unique character. This principle not only solidifies the brand’s tie to its locality but also promotes sustainable practices by utilising readily available resources and minimising transportation. Gin Palma is distilled with locally foraged wildflowers and fresh citrus fruit from the rural orchards of Mallorca, the result creates a fresh, dry, citrus infused gin with a delicate and smooth finish. One of the key products of the Palma range is their gin, celebrated for its smoothness, flavour complexity and the genuine reflection of Mallorcan botanicals. The brand places emphasis on producing spirits that are not just consumable products but also a representation of the location from which they originate, sharing a piece of Mallorca with every pour. Through this, Palma successfully introduces drinkers to the vibrant nature of the island authentically and enjoyably. After 2 years of research and a few delays along the way, we officially opened Mallorca Distillery in 2018, the first craft distillery to open in Palma de Mallorca. Our goal was to take everything the island had to offer and somehow capture this in the look, feel and taste of our gin. So we started searching for produce and botanicals that grow naturally on the island and worked hard to create a gin recipe, which we feel, represents Mallorca for its delicate flowers, zesty citrus and earthy vegetation. After a year spent developing the recipe for our first product, we officially launched PALMA GIN in September 2018. Palma Gin is also known for its beautiful bottle design. It’s sleek and elegant, with a geometric pattern that is reminiscent of the Art Deco era and is a work of art in its own right and looks beautiful on any bar. It is inspired by traditional Mallorcan tiles and printed with organic paint, making it eco-friendly and recyclable. The company logo is inspired by the rose window in La Seu Cathedral, one of the most iconic spots in Palma.

PALMA GIN is distilled using only the highest quality products available. Each botanical has either been hand foraged from the island or is certified organic, giving the spirit it's beautifully smooth finish. Organic Wheat Spirit is first macerated for 18-20 hours with the unique base botanicals; including Mallorcan Juniper, and local fresh citrus peel. This Oak Aged Spiced Gin from the Mallorca Distillery’s Palma series was initially a limited release but was so popular they decided to make it a permanent addition! For this expression, the original Palma Gin is aged in Mallorcan oak barrels which previously held local wine, and vanilla, cinnamon and clove are added to the spirit while it rests in said barrels. After the taste comes the bottle design, which is inspired by the traditional Mallorcan tiles, known as ‘suelo hidraulico’. This was the key inspiration and starting point in creating the stunning tile design, which took over a year to complete and is printed with organic paint directly onto the bottle using a specialised process, resulting in an eco-friendly and recyclable product. We caught up with Alex von Eisenhart Rothe, Co-Founder of LAW Gin in Ibiza, and Byron Holland, Co-Founder of Mallorca Distillery and Palma Gin, to find out what makes Spanish Gin special and how the industry has grown in recent years:

MALLORCA'S PREMIUM GIN

We are a small craft distillery (approximately 200 sqm) with a Spanish 500 litre copper pot still located in the industrial heart of Palma de Mallorca.

With a 2000-year history, Palma hosts the bespoke copper pot distillery where Gin Palma was founded and created. True passion and desire combine to produce a handcrafted spirit, of pure quality, using only local, natural and organic botanicals, ensuring intricate care and attention with every distillation. The unique core flavour comes from the Mallorcan juniper berries capturing the subtle essence of the Mediterranean Sea. Almond flowers, foraged once a year before spring, combined with orange leaves and lavender, create a delicate floral scent and sweetness. These core ingredients really enhance the depth of flavours from the other botanicals we use. Byron:In terms of production, the Spanish Gin Industry, has developed significantly in the past 10 years. There has been notable increase in the number of smaller craft producers throughout Spain, challenging the bigger traditional regional distilleries in terms of variety and quality in offerings. As a result, these larger producers have also revived and modernised their range of Gins. Byron:Gin Distillers is Spain are spoilt for choice when it comes to the availability of local botanicals and base alcohols. Citrus fruits are available in abundance all over Spain and as a result, many offerings focus on showcasing the nuances in aroma of varieties local to producer. In additional to citrus, many Spanish Gins make use of local wildflowers and herbs, adding complexity and variety to the Gins distilled in Spain. We like to show off the richness in flavour of the Mallorquin Orange Peel, Lavender and Almond Blossom in our Palma Gin, all grown within 15km of the Distillery. After maceration the distillation commences, passing the vapours through an infusion basket containing the more delicate botanicals, including Wild Almond Flowers, Lavender, Orange Leaves, Lime Zest and Tomato Branches. The combination results in a lightly floral and citrus gin with a smooth earthy finish. A true taste of Mallorca.Palma Gin is a premium gin from Mallorca, Spain. It is a unique and refreshing drink that has gained popularity in recent years. Palma, a spirits brand, began its journey in the industry by creating distinct products that reflect a deep appreciation for organic production and local ingredients. Originating from the island of Mallorca, the brand is well-known for its dedication to producing high-quality, organic spirits, which stem from the region's rich agricultural bounty. Hos Ginbutikken anvender vi PostNord til alle vores pakker, det betyder at du i 99% af alle tilfælde har dine pakker allerede dagen efter, ihvertfald på bestillinger lagt inden 14:00. In June 2015 we decided to sell the restaurant and move to the beautiful island of Mallorca to settle down and start a family with our now 1 year old daughter Amelia. It was in Edinburgh that we saw the rise of the craft distilling revolution first hand, with the launch of local products such as Edinburgh Gin and The Botanist, and as soon as we arrived in Palma we knew that there was a real market for quality artisan spirits that would truly represent what Mallorca has to offer. Definitelya G&T with a quality natural tonic and peel of orange or in a classic Negroni to add the perfect depth of flavour.
