Portofino Dry Gin is an artisanal gin created with a passion for Portofino, its effortless beauty and glamorous history. The company was founded in homage to Klaus Pudel, the grandfather of Portofino Dry Gin’s co-founder Ruggero, a man much admired for having saved Portofino from destruction during the Second World War and still remembered today as one of the most representative characters of the Italian “Dolce Vita” era.

 The gin features 21 botanicals, each one carefully selected for its natural aromatic properties. Lemons, lavender, rosemary, marjoram, sage, iris and rose are organically grown in the botanical sanctuary on the hills of Portofino and combined with locally handpicked ingredients to complete the secret recipe.

 Its mission is to bring the village’s hidden charms to the world alongside its traditions, ensuring that with every sip the magical feeling of strolling down the “Piazzetta” stays with us – wherever we are.

Produced in limited quantities, Portofino Dry Gin — La Penisola is a tribute to the stunning beauty of the Portofino peninsula. Crafted using the traditional London Dry method, it is distilled with ten carefully selected botanicals — including the region’s signature maritime pine — capturing the very essence of the Mediterranean shore.

This special release boasts a uniquely bright and aromatic profile that reflects the lush greenery and vibrant coastal energy of Portofino. Presented in an exquisitely designed bottle featuring the iconic Castello Brown, La Penisola stands as a symbol of elegance and the rich natural heritage of this enchanting region.
