Nine Tuscan botanicals create a unique gin
Sabatini Gin
A London Dry Gin with a truly Tuscan soul
Sabatini Gin is the result of the union between love for Tuscany and love for good Gin. What probably few people know is that the best Juniper, used in the production of many high-quality gins, comes from Tuscany itself.
Here, in Teccognano, a hamlet in Cortona, in the province of Arezzo, the Sabatini family has decided to make their relationship with this land even closer and to elevate the degree of Gin Tuscanity Gin.
They chose to use not only juniper from the estate but also a selection of botanicals grown on the family property and neighboring farms, thus creating a London Dry Gin that truly represents the terroir.
In 2015, the Sabatini Family (Enrico, Filippo, Niccolò and Ugo) founded Teccognano S.r.l., a family-run company that now has several employees.
This project comes from the heart, from all four of us. People see that. They understand it
Niccolò Sabatini
Co-founder
In the name of excellence, the family sought out renowned ginmaker Charles Maxwell, of Thames Distillers. Together with the family, Maxwell oversaw the choice of botanicals to be used, creating a recipe that offers a unique drinking experience reminiscent of Tuscany while still respecting the rules of classical distillation.
Sabatini Gin, then, is not only a premium London Dry Gin of artisanal production but it is also the result of a perfect union of flavors, aromas, suggestions and history; an important celebration of the historical and cultural bond that connects Tuscany and England.
Nine botanicals of Tuscan origin are present in SABATINI GIN: juniper, coriander, Florentine iris, wild fennel, lavender, olive leaves, thyme, lemon verbena, and sage.
Most of the botanicals are harvested from the properties belonging to the Sabatini family in Teccognano while juniper comes from other areas of the region.
