DOLCE VITA Dry Gin is a Mediterranean gin obtained from the distillation of spices, roots, citrus fruits and flowers picked exclusively in Italy. Distilled by the Targa family, DOLCE VITA was born from the union of passion for the art of distillation and devotion to one's own country: Italy.

THE ORIGINS: To explain this product and its packaging, it is necessary to refer to the passion for the landscapes, colors and scents of southern Italy, by the Targa family, originally from Padua. In particular in 1932, the young future aviation commander Emo Targa, at the time just over fourteen, undertook a long summer vacation with his family to reach Acitrezza, a small town on the Sicilian coast.
During the trip, Emo got to know the flavors, fragrances and scents of southern Italy for the first time. One of the stays was planned in Naples. Here, shortly after his arrival, he met a young girl, originally from Capri, with whom he spent a long time talking. A tender sympathy immediately arose between the two and the two children decided to make an appointment for the next day in Capri. Since Emo did not know the island, they agreed to be in Piazza Umberto 1 ° (the famous "little square"), under the bell tower.
The following day and the next 3 days they continued to meet in the same place, getting lost in games and frantic chatter, surrounded by the bright colors of the Mediterranean and breathing the mild air saturated with aromas. In the following weeks, the young Targa greeted his dear friend and continued his journey across Italy to Sicily. Once back in Padua, Emo continued to cherish that passion born for the south, a passion that he, having become a father, he continued to transmit to his family.
In fact, it was his son Dino who, once he learned the art of distillation working in the family business, decided to pay homage to his father and the lands he loved so much, combining the aromas he described in a single distillate. This is how the “DOLCE VITA” Gin is born, a tribute to Capri and the delicate scents of the Mediterranean.
