Malfy Originale Gin

Malfy Gin Originale or “Il Classico” is a quintessential Italian dry-style gin that artfully combines tradition with sun-lit elegance. Crafted by Torino Distillati near Turin and distributed by Pernod Ricard, it embodies Italian craftsmanship at 41% ABV.

Neat in the glass, it presents as crystal clear, with an aromatic profile of classic juniper, coriander, and anise. On the palate, it delivers a dry—almost salty-dry—mouthfeel, with a complex juniper backbone, subtly sweet liquorice, and a hint of citrus.

Distilled in a stainless-steel vacuum still using hand-picked botanicals—juniper, Italian lemons, coriander, cassia, angelica, and more, it is gently blended with pure spring water from the Piedmont region. The result is a gin that is both crisp and classic, firmly rooted in tradition while still offering a distinctive Italian character.

ABV:42%
Nose:Bright and fresh, with dominant juniper, coriander seed, and soft herbal tones. Hints of anise and subtle citrus zest create a clean, crisp, and invigorating aromatic profile.
Palate:Classic dry juniper leads, supported by coriander spice and a gentle liquorice sweetness. Smooth yet bold, with a saline edge and restrained citrus rounding the mouthfeel.
Finish:Long and dry, with lingering juniper, herbal spice, and faint anise. A touch of heat remains, leaving a clean, refreshing, slightly bracing aftertaste.
Serve:Ideal as a mixing gin, Malfy Originale shines in classics like a Gin & Tonic, where a garnish of grapefruit highlights its brightness. It also works beautifully in an Aqua Azzura Spritz or as a crisp, juniper-forward Negroni.
