Sharish Gin Distiller's Cut 1 x 1.50L 1 Magnum Bottle Gin MASTER DISTILLER: António Cuco. DESTILLATION PROCESS Seven years after developing the original Sharish Gin recipe, the idea arose to create a version of what Sharish would have been like if Distiller António Cuco had decided to create the same recipe in 2021, using all the botanical and distillation knowledge accumulated since 2014. The original botanicals were essentially retained. However, the orange and lemon were replaced with tangerine, bergamot, and kaffir lime. Some of the distiller's favorite aromas and flavors were added: lemon balm, cardamom, and orange blossom. TASTING NOTES The result was a more classic gin, drier and more complex, with a mix of citrus, floral, and fruity notes, just the way the most discerning consumers like it. It's our top-of-the-line product. HISTORY What distinguishes Sharish Gin is the fact that we use mainly fresh and local products, as well as the infusion/distillation method used with traditional Portuguese stills and a slow distillation process that favors quality. It is not possible to think about gin without thinking about man. And it’s story of it’s creator, António Cuco, is as authentic as he is. During a period of unemployment and thanks to an incredible capacity for entrepreneurship, antónio cuco went from a simple connoisseur of the gin drink to a true “alchemist of flavors”, being able to create an emblematic and internationally recognized brand. As inspiration, António Cuco went back to recovering smells and flavors from his childhood, such as the Bravo de Esmolfe apple, which his great-grandmother gave him to eat at the Borba market, and the lemon verbena, an aroma that reminded him of the tea that S. Manços prepared it at snack time. He combined these memories with botanicals, citrus fruits and other ingredients, all from his land, to arrive at the final formula for his Sharish Gin. Sharish Gin, whose original recipe remains unchanged, has gone from a homemade drink, made to give just to a few friends, to a premium drink of recognized quality and a distillery with 1,400 m2 and a turnover that amounts to R$1,300,000. 00 (2018). It is at the Sharish Gin distillery that there is the first and only Gin Interpretation Center in the Iberian Peninsula, where more than 6,000 people have passed through in just one space and in just one year. Sharish is a growing brand preparing for the future. PLEASE NOTE: This is a recurring auction. The seal number(s) you see on the photos might differ from the one(s) on your bottle(s).
