About this product
Aged in Sardinian Chestnut.
Pigskin London Dry Gin from Silvio Carta takes the classic London Dry style to a whole new level. Crafted from 100% Sardinian botanicals and aged in exclusive Sardinian chestnut barrels, it develops an exceptional depth and complexity while retaining the crisp, juniper-forward character you expect from a premium gin. Each sip reflects the island’s wild hills, aromatic herbs, and coastal freshness, creating a gin that is both elegant and distinctive.
Distilled in small copper pot stills with meticulous care, “Pigskin” London Dry Gin combines the freshness of hand-picked Sardinian juniper with subtle herbal and citrus notes, enhanced by the gentle influence of chestnut wood ageing. The result is a sophisticated gin with a silky texture, nuanced flavour, and a signature Sardinian character that Irish gin enthusiasts will appreciate for its originality and premium craftsmanship.
Why we love it:
We love “Pigskin” London Dry Gin for its unique interplay of tradition and innovation.
