SILVIO CARTA PIGSKIN GIN 700ML
Pigskin is a dandy with a hipster soul. Charming in the glass, elegant in its aromas, it releases its energy in the mouth. The pride of Elio Carta, its secret is forged in the 100-year old chestnut barrels that were the home of Vernaccia di Oristano for decades.
The name comes from a bizarre close encounter with wild boars during the harvest of the botanical species used in Gin production. Instead of running away at the sight of humans, the wild boars remained in the area to nose around, and so Elio wanted to pay tribute to this fearless animal with an equally courageous distilled product.
