Sabatini London Dry Gin, 70cl, 41.3% ABV.

Product Information

As the Sabatinis got to know more about gin, trying the best spirits from around the world, they started seeing connections between the botanical flavours they loved in their G&Ts and the scents and flavours they remembered from their childhood breaks on the estate. Slowly but surely, an idea came to them. Enrico Sabatini, a man with a passion for gin and an eye for detail, revealed that his strategy for winning over Indian consumers involves a deep understanding of their tastes and preferences. He understands that the Indian market is diverse and complex, with a wide range of tastes and preferences, and as such, he is committed to tailoring the brand’s marketing and messaging to resonate with Indian consumers.

It was the perfect project. Not only would creating a gin together ensure that Ugo, Enrico, Niccoló and Filippo stayed connected to one another, but it would give them the opportunity to introduce the world to the place that meant so much to them.

As Filippo says of the hills above Cortona: “Those are special places – our legacy is closely connected to this area, and the places where our ancestors were born, lived, played as kids, married and now rest in peace.”

Italian Co-Founder Enrico Sabatini will lead the tour across India. He will meet with guests and show them the first gin that combines Tuscan botanicals and herbs with traditional London Dry Gin distilling methods in a stunning bottle that looks like the Tuscan landscape. From Tuesday, March 14, 2023, to Saturday, March 18, 2023, in Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore, Sabatini’s very own Co-Founder Enrico Sabatini and Mattia Lotti, Sabatini’s Global brand Ambassador, will take you through a gin-filled week filled with refreshing guest shifts and masterclasses to be-GIN summer on the right note. All about Sabatini Gin tour and more: Sabatini Gin Recently, the Sabatini Family introduced their London Dry Gin to the Indian market, where it has been received with open arms. As Filippo says, “The gin is a tribute to our homeland. Everything started there, and this gin brings us there.” As Ugo says, “Italy was built on the success of family-run businesses, some of which have gone on to be leading, international brands. Our aspiration is to do the same with Sabatini Gin – to establish it as a leading, premium brand that can connect people around the world with the wonders of Tuscany.” We at Anggel’s Share are thrilled to associate with Sabatini Gin.

Creating an event in collaboration with our International Brand Ambassador also gives us the opportunity to accelerate this process.” Gin, Filippo says, always played a central role in this ritual of the evening aperitivo. He says, “Gin and tonic has always been our favourite drink. Enrico started introducing us to new gins, and we discovered a whole new world!”

As Ugo Sabatini, elder statesman of the family behind Sabatini Gin, explains: “This is the cradle of the Renaissance, which led to the production of an astounding quality of masterpieces in practically every artistic realm – and this is where the key botanicals of London Dry gin, like juniper, orris and coriander grow.” Heat up a griddle or pan. Brush one slice of aubergine on both sides with olive oil and fry in batches, making sure to allow each slice to soften and char slightly. Continue until all aubergine is griddled.Mix together Parmesan, bread crumbs and pine nuts in a small bowl. Toss some breadcrumbs and basil onto the mozzarella layer. Cover the top of the aubergine bake with the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture and bake. Sabatini Gin is made with home-grown botanicals and distilled in London Dry Style. This combination creates a perfect balance in flavours consisting in a pleasant aroma of fresh herbaceous and lemon scent, with nuances that refer to the Tuscan countryside. The Sabatini Family’s journey began in 2015, with a vision to bring the essence of Italy to the world through a unique and exceptional product. With this goal in mind, they began working tirelessly to create a gin that would represent the country’s rich heritage and culture, incorporating traditional Tuscan aromas into a classic London Dry Gin recipe.

Think of Tuscan dishes: they’re very simple,” Niccoló explains. “What makes the difference is the freshness of the ingredients.”

The new generations see the value of the family legacy,” adds Niccoló, “and still enjoy coming over to Cortona with their friends to meet the family and reconnect to what we call ‘our unique place’.” Our family roots have been set in Tuscany for generations,” says Ugo’s son, Enrico. “Despite our professional lives forcing us to live across the world, Cortona is still a common catalyst in our lives.” At the moment we are looking to build our brand in a healthy way creating a solid base, once this will be achieved we will work with my distributor on the next step planning a growth path to aim to be one of the leading European Gin in India.” And, thanks to Filippo’s London connections, the family had a key ally early on. Alessandro Palazzi, the legendary barman at Duke’s Bar at Duke’s Hotel in central London, home of the capital’s most famous Martini, was eager to help fellow Italians develop a gin that paid tribute to Tuscany.

The goal of Sabatini Gin was clear from the beginning. As Ugo explains, “It’s not only about the flavour. Our gin tells a story.” This northern Italian region – home of Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, to name just two of the many geniuses who were born and worked here – was the centre of Italian political and artistic life for hundreds of years. But its blessings go deeper, to the very ground, and show themselves in the richly flavoured herbs that blossom on the green hillsides. Sabatini Gin is best described as a London Dry Gin with a Tuscan soul because it recently won the Silver medal in the London Dry Gin category of the World Gin Award 2023. The Sabatini’s passion, love for their land, and pride in their heritage resulted in the creation of this, which is a fruit of a perfect fusion of flavours and aromas. This Gin contains nine strictly Tuscan botanicals: juniper, of course, but also coriander, iris, wild fennel, lavender, olive leaves, wild thyme, also known as savoury in Tuscany, lemon verbena, and sage, the majority of which are derived from wild plants collected in the villa’s gardens.
