The Etna Gin of Amacardo Sicily of the Belfiore Distilleries, is the artisanal botanical gin with a typically Sicilian character. The infusion of wild herbs that grow at the foot of the Etna volcano gives the gin a unique aroma: Sicilian blood oranges, juniper and wild Etna artichoke blend in an explosive balance that offers the senses a decidedly distinctive experience .

On the nose, Etna Gin is very aromatic and intense, with prevailing notes of juniper combined with citrus notes of orange and lemon. On the palate it is decidedly soft and enveloping, with a very long finish. Juniper joins the particular notes of wild artichoke, softened by the intensity of citrus.

Etna Gin is, of course, a tribute to Etna and, with it, to beautiful Sicily. The gin is produced at the foot of the volcano, with Sicilian botanicals according to a secret recipe of which only the main ingredients are revealed: juniper, orange, lemon and wild artichoke, all collected on the island. The motif that appears on the elegant bottle incorporates the typical motifs of Sicilian Baroque architecture and art.

Etna Gin is a distilled gin, that is, the botanicals are macerated separately in a hydroalcoholic solution, then each infusion is distilled individually. Each distillate is then united according to a precise balance.
