Gin Giüst was created in Valchiavenna at the heart of the central Alps, where the centuries-old traditions of distillation and harvesting of high altitude medicinal herbs meet.
Ancient wisdom comes together today with the preparation of a young, fresh and new gin that takes full advantage of the very best essences within the territory.
Refined and natural botanical specimens, in addition to artisan honey from the Spluga Valley, are an expression of the biodiversity of the upper regions.
The water, used since the nineteenth century for the production of alcoholic beverages, flows from its natural source in the Bregaglia Valley and, thanks to its characteristics of purity and lightness, contributes to allowing Gin Giüst to become a product of the highest quality, and a new contributor to the genuine excellence of our territory.
Our artisan distillation carried out with the London Dry Gin technique involves the use of natural botanical samples both in direct contact with the liquid in the alembic and in a current of steam in order to extract the maximum aroma.
The brand symbolically recalls the values of our land and its products: the black U represents the profile of Valchiavenna, a glacial valley, a borderland between people of different cultures, languages and religions, which has always been the cradle of new ideas and healthy, winning contaminations. The green umlaut represents the herbs that characterize our gin, giving it unique and original fragrances.
