After Ben Iravani and Josh Rennie launched their trendy bar in Aberdeen, Scotland in 2009 they decided to experiment with an ideal recipe of botanicals infusions and unique methods to extract the herbs and spices using a cold vacuum distillation. Together with university professor Andrew Porter they created a special vacuum still, subsequently naming their gin after him.

The distillate used for Porter’s Gin is sourced from G&L Distillers near Manchester. This gin stays true to the traditional combination of sweetened gin and exotic botanicals while using modern methods to extract more refined sophisticated flavors. The signature juniper base is enhanced by tropical notes of passion fruit, guava and white tea, which are cold distilled to maintain freshness.

NOTES OF

SCENT & FLAVOR

COLOR

Deep colour, almost opaque.

NOSE

Aroma of excellent complexity, with wild bush and spicy notes like curry, pepper and ginger, red berries and black fruits mixed with a light cacao touch, the result of a good maturation, along with a slightly stony finish.

PALATE

On the palate it has a powerful attack, with a lively acidity, firm and well present tannins, wild bush and red berry notes, with an extremely long finish and great concentration.

“Thanks to the characteristics and potential of the vineyards at Quinta do Seixo, it was possible to cut through the strong maturations of this year's harvest. As a result, we produced very balanced and robust wines, with aromatic notes typical of more mature years.” - Luís Sottomayor, head of Sogrape's winemaking

ORIGINS

Quinta do Seixo Vintage is a unique expression of this renowned estate, where a combination of soil, slope inclination, sun exposure and reduced amount of available water contribute to the production of intense and complex wines.The 100-year-old vines producing Port create wines full of intensity, character and freshness.
