About this product
Sardinia’s Salty Herbal Spell.
Grifu London Dry Gin is Silvio Carta’s timeless interpretation of the classic gin style — elevated by Sardinia’s wild beauty and uncompromising craftsmanship. Distilled from 100% Sardinian botanicals, this gin captures the essence of the Mediterranean landscape where sun, wind, and sea shape every ingredient. The result is a spirit that balances traditional London Dry structure with the aromatic depth of the island’s native herbs.
At its core lies Sardinian juniper — bold, aromatic, and richer than its continental cousins — blended with myrtle, wild fennel, and citrus peel for a dry yet expressive profile. On the nose, it’s crisp and herbal, while the palate unfolds with layers of pine, citrus zest, and a whisper of coastal salinity. Distilled in small batches in copper stills, it’s a gin that reflects both precision and soul.
In Ireland, Grifu London Dry has earned praise for its authenticity and versatility — the perfect gin for those who appreciate classic purity but crave a touch of Mediterranean charm. Ideal for a premium Gin & Tonic or a refined martini, it’s Sardinia in a glass: elegant, aromatic, and full of character.
Why we love it:
Grifu isn’t just a gin—it's a sensory journey. Its bright Mediterranean juniper and whisper of sage draw you in, while the saline edge and balsamic notes root you in Sardinia’s coastal air. Smooth and refined, yet unmistakably wild, this gin feels both elegant and earthy. In Ireland, where drinkers value both quality and story, Grifu stands out as a truly authentic taste of the island’s soul.
