About this product
Classic. Crafted. Distinctly Alpine.
Ciais Dry Gin is a refined expression of Italian craftsmanship, born from the historic Bordiga Distillery in the heart of the Piedmont Alps. Established in 1888, Bordiga has long been celebrated for its mastery of herbal distillation, and Ciais represents its modern premium gin — elegant, crisp, and unmistakably rooted in its alpine origin.
The name Ciais (pronounced “ch-ice”) nods to the purity of mountain water and the crystalline precision that defines this gin. Crafted from hand-harvested alpine juniper berries, wild herbs, and select botanicals, it embodies the balance between nature and refinement. The gin’s bright, aromatic character reveals layers of juniper, citrus zest, alpine flowers, and subtle spice, all carried by a remarkably clean mouthfeel.
Every sip evokes mountain air and Mediterranean light, capturing both purity and depth — a duality that has made Ciais Dry Gin an understated luxury among gin enthusiasts. For discerning drinkers in Ireland, it’s a chance to discover Italian excellence with a northern soul, ideal for those who appreciate craftsmanship and clarity in every glass.
Why we love it:
We love Ciais Dry Gin for its refined, natural elegance. It’s not about flash but finesse — a gin that speaks softly yet confidently, delivering crisp juniper freshness and delicate herbal notes. Perfect in a classic G&T, a Martini, or enjoyed neat, it’s a gin for those who appreciate detail and balance.
