A bright and lightly tart pink Gin from Mexico with fragrant orange blossoms and prickly-pear fruit taking center stage.

In the heart of bustling Mexico City there are two famous neighborhoods — Condesa and Roma. They are each an old-world oasis of trendy architecture and design. Condesa Gin is named after this respite. Founded by an all-woman team, Condesa Gin (or Ginebra) produces a pair of fragrant Gins influenced by the botanicals and traditions of Mexico.

On the flag of Mexico is the image of an eagle eating a snake while perched on a cactus. The pre-Columbian Aztec peoples were nomadic, and their legends dictated that they could not stop to build their city and civilization until they saw this sight. And see it they did, founding Mexico Tenochtitlan in 1325.

The second Gin from Condesa builds upon their Classic Gin, adding the fruit of the prickly-pear cactus and orange blossoms to raspberry, juniper berries, coriander seeds, and lime. The Spirit has a natural pink hue from the prickly-pear fruit and is bottled at 43% ABV.

Few Gin distillers make their own alcohol. Gin usually starts with neutral Spirit: A commodity that distillers buy in bulk. It’s what the distiller does with this commodity in the flavor-infusing process that makes each Gin different.
Gin gets its dominant flavour from juniper berries. As with many other spirits, Gin was originally intended to be used as medicine. Yeah right!
London Dry Gin is not always from London. Gin does not have the same geographical restrictions as Spirits such as Cognac, Scotch, or Tequila. Only a tiny handful of London Dry Gins are actually made in the city.
As with many other Spirits, Gin was originally intended to be used as a medicine—to battle malaria.
Classifications of Gin: London Dry Gin, Plymouth Gin, Old Tom Gin, Genever or Dutch, New Western or new American or International style.
How much Tonic is in a Gin & Tonic? The ideal proportions for a perfect Gin & Tonic is one part Gin and two parts Tonic.
