Sweet clementine and bright lemon peel lead, cool mint and a firm juniper spine keeping it honest. Made in family hands near Turin, vacuum-distilled low and slow at 60 degrees so the citrus stays fresh-squeezed rather than candied. Warm orange in the glass, fresh on the tongue, with a long and sunny close.

Description
Mintis comes from a small Piedmontese distillery in Moncalieri, on the edge of Turin, run by Carlo Vergnano with his wife and daughter and a few employees. Master distiller Denis Muni, with two decades behind him, takes the spirit through a customised vacuum still for eight hours at a low 60 degrees, a method that preserves the bright, aromatic character of the botanicals. Every bottle is signed by hand. This release builds around fresh clementine and northern Italian mint.
The nose is fresh and fruity, juniper underpinning clementine, mint and lemon. The palate follows with juicy clementine and lemon peel, a cooling thread of mint and juniper holding the structure together. The finish runs long and citrus-sweet. It makes a lovely Clementina Negroni, equal parts gin, Campari and a good red Italian vermouth, stirred over ice.
