Palma Monastrell Gin – Limited Edition Craft Gin from Mallorca
Palma Monastrell Gin: Our Limited Edition Where Gin Meets Mallorcan Wine
Mallorca is an island of two great passions: gin and wine. For centuries, local vineyards have cultivated the Monastrell grape — a variety that thrives in the Mediterranean heat and produces deep, richly flavoured fruit. And for years, our distillery has been crafting organic gin using botanicals foraged from the same sun-drenched island. With Palma Monastrell Gin, we've brought those two worlds together for the first time.
This is our most unique expression to date — a limited-edition gin that bridges the art of distillation with Mallorca's winemaking heritage, and the result is unlike anything else in our range.
What Is Palma Monastrell Gin?
Palma Monastrell Gin starts with our original Palma Gin — crafted from 15 hand-selected organic and locally foraged botanicals — and infuses it with organic Monastrell grapes sourced directly from a partner vineyard right here on the island.
The Monastrell variety is known for its exceptional depth: dark in colour, rich in fruit, with natural notes of blackberry and plum. When those characteristics meet our botanical gin base, the result is something entirely new: a spirit with the structure and complexity of a fine gin, layered with the luscious, fruity character of a red wine grape.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Sweet Monastrell grapes open the aroma, followed by a bouquet of fresh citrus and floral notes — a gentle warmth that feels distinctly Mediterranean.
Palate: A rich, fruity sweetness from the Monastrell grapes blends seamlessly with the depth of our botanical base — blackberry and plum at the fore, with layered citrus and spice underneath.
Finish: Intense, rich and elegant, with a subtle lingering warmth that stays long after the sip.
Mouthfeel: Velvety and full-bodied — a quality that sets Monastrell apart from the rest of our range and nods to its wine origins.
Why Is It a Limited Edition?
Monastrell grapes are harvested once a year — and the quality and quantity of each harvest varies with the season. Because we work exclusively with a single local partner vineyard and use only organic fruit, each batch of Palma Monastrell Gin is inherently tied to that year's harvest. That's what makes it a true limited edition: when it's gone, it's gone until the next harvest is ready.
If you've been waiting to try it, now is the time.
How to Enjoy Palma Monastrell Gin
Neat or on the rocks: The richness and complexity of Monastrell Gin make it beautiful to sip slowly on its own — especially after dinner, in the way you might enjoy a glass of wine.
With tonic: A light, dry tonic lets the grape and citrus character come through. Garnish with a few blueberries or a slice of orange to echo the fruit notes.
In cocktails: Monastrell Gin works beautifully as the base for a gin sour or a simple long drink with soda and fresh citrus — the fruity depth adds a dimension that classic gin alone can't achieve.
A Spirit Made From the Island, For the Island
Everything in this bottle comes from Mallorca. The botanicals are foraged by our local farming partners — Tony and Susana from the Tramuntana for juniper and citrus, the Gamundi family for almond blossoms from Son Penyaflor. The Monastrell grapes come from a vineyard that has been growing wine on this island for generations.
When you open a bottle of Palma Monastrell Gin, you're not just opening a limited-edition spirit. You're opening a piece of the island itself.
