Mombasa Club 70cl.

PRODUCTION

Mombasa Club gin is a London Dry type, although its recipe dates back to the late 19th century.

It is distilled in batches using neutral alcohol that has been distilled four times, and botanicals are added, including angelica root, cassia bark, cloves, cumin, juniper berries, lemon, and many others. The result is a gin that returns to its origins and transports us back in time. Because, moreover, Mombasa is an important name in the history of the United Kingdom.

Mombasa, a coastal city facing the island of Zanzibar, was a crucial strategic point for trade routes between the West and the East. The British Empire established a colony there, and in 1885 the first private social club, the legendary Mombasa Club, was founded for officers of the British East Africa Protectorate.
