Malfy Gin con Arancia

Beneath the bracing orange color is a fresh, citrus explosion of a Gin with Italian flare.

Malfy Gin was developed by premium Spirits company Biggar and Leith. The concept was pure and simple. Since Italy is understood to be the ancestral home of Gin, Malfy Gin (named after the Amalfy Coast) would produce Gin in Italy using fresh, natural, Italian ingredients. Things went swimmingly well, and the brand and production was picked up by Chivas Brothers, a division of Pernod Richard. There are currently four versions of these Italian-themed Gins and all should be sampled profusely.

The Arancia is a special variety of Orange from Sicily. The sea air and cool Mediterranean nights give the oranges a deep, red-orange color so it’s referred to as the Sicilian Blood-Orange. Malfy Gin con Arancia starts with a base of their signature Italian Gin built on six botanicals. But the process actually starts with a separate infusion of blood orange peels. The result is a tangy, refreshing Gin with a bracing color that will add nothing but life to your next Gin cocktail creation.

Smartass Corner:
The Dutch and English would debate the point — well, they might actually get pretty angry about it — but Gin was invented in Italy during the 11th century when cloistered monks added Italian Ginepro (juniper) to their distillation. Dutch Genever came about 200 years later. Let the fighting begin.
