Una bottiglia di Portofino Gin da 5 Litri 40% vol.

È un gin che nasce guardando Portofino mentre le barche escono dal porto alla sera.

I 21 ingredienti utilizzati, fra cui botaniche coltivate e raccolte a mano sul monte di Portofino, sono stati attentamente selezionati per conferire sentori freschi e mediterranei al gin.

Dopo un processo di macerazione leggero, ogni singola botanica - ginepro, limone, lavanda, rosmarino, iris, maggiorana, salvia - viene distillata separatamente in un alambicco di rame, sotto la supervisione del mastro distillatore.

Ogni distillato viene poi miscelato per creare il mix unico di PortofinoGin.

Il risultato è un gin perfettamente bilanciato: agrumato ma morbido, con una chiara nota di ginepro unita a sottili aromi speziati e leggere sfumature floreali.

Il design della bottiglia è un omaggio al porto di Portofino, dove case colorate e verdi colline danno vita a uno dei luoghi iconici della RivieraLigure

The Cause

The Giacomo Ponzone Foundation (FGP) was set up in the memory of Giacomo Ponzone, whose life was suddenly cut short at the age of 25 due to Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy, a genetic disease that is difficult to diagonose and causes sudden death in apparently healthy young people.

The Giacomo Ponzone Foundation has two important objectives. The first concerns the research and study of Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy of the left ventricle, a rare cardiac pathology. The second aim is to support deserving students enrolled at the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart of Milan, in particular the Faculty of Economics and Business Management from which Giacomo graduated, to give an opportunity to students who would otherwise not have had the chance to study.
The Giacomo Ponzone Foundation has joined forces with the Monzino Cardiology Center to support study projects concerning the little known Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy for which currently little can be done in terms of prevention.

This pathology is characterized by two main clinical signs: the appearance of malignant arrhythmias and the progressive replacement of healthy heart tissue with adipose tissue. Among the factors that can cause arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy is the dysregulation of the normal calcium content in heart cells. The objectives of the first FGP project with the Monzino Cardiology Center are to:
1. understand the new calcium-dependent molecular mechanisms responsible for the disease;
2. use molecules already approved by the FDA to fight it.
