WHAT

Botanicals grow wild throughout the region, time-honoured in local folklore: refreshing bay and soothing sage, along with the salty tang of samphire, the understated citrus flavor of lemon verbena, and the faintest murmur of mint. There are hints of Galician explorers from bygone times too, with juniper, cardamon, giniger, hibiscus and tea. To finish, our best-kept secret: distilled Galician wine, which is what gives our gin its unique character and flavor.

WHO

Nordés is Galicia’s very own premium gin, which was created as a celebration of its native land and has quickly become a revolutionary gin, taking the familiar to the next level with its authentic feel and exquisite flavour. The history of Nordés, Galicia’s very own gin, began with a group of friends and a dish of octopus. Whilst enjoying this traditional Galician delicacy, a renowned sommelier and winner of the Nariz de Oro awards 2004, a Galician winemaker and a master distiller began to imagine a Galician gin which would be made using local ingredients and be truly different from other gins. After much trial and error, they finally found the perfect combination of ingredients, which captured the essence of Galicia, giving rise to what we now know as Nordés.
