Armònico Gin Seca Mexicana

50% ABV

Delightfully strong and dry Gin from the state of Querétaro in Mexico. Containing a number of native Mexican botanicals but with a strong backbone of Juniper, it's an internationally styled Gin that works well in classic recipes calling for a London Dry or even a Navy Strength Gin. 

Producer Notes:
Originally from the small town of San Juan del Río in the state Querétaro, not far from Mexico City, master distiller Andrés Valverde began producing beverage alcohol (brewing beer) at the tender age of sixteen. Just a few years later, he evolved to distillation. After studying and apprenticing in Chicago, Andrés and his brother cofounded La Insoportable Brewery and Distillery (La Insoportable meaning “the unbearable,” inspired by Milan Kundera’s novel The Unbearable Lightness of Being) to provide a brick-and-mortar HQ for exploring and experimenting with the liquid arts and culture of Mexico. And in 2017, Andrés finalized the recipe for Armónico (“Harmonic”) Gin, a gin that aims to marry his modern creative sensibilities, fascination with other spirits from around the world, and deeply idiosyncratic sense of Mexican heritage expressed through flavor and aroma.

Armónico is distilled using what’s referred to as the “multi-shot” process of gin or bitter production. Multiple distillations of distinct botanicals or botanical blends are made individually, allowing the distillers to achieve varying levels of concentration to use as components in a master blend that is the gin itself. Some are used in substantial volume; some are used as cautiously as seasoning.

Distilled on a 300-liter copper pot still using thirty-two botanicals (including many that are endemic only to Mexico), the finished 50% ABV (100-proof) Dry Mexican Gin is both compellingly unique and satisfyingly familiar. Armónico Gin was built to represent Mexico on the global stage of the world’s great gins.
