Nordés Gin

The story of Nordés gin began with the meeting of three friends, eating octopus in a restaurant. A renowned sommelier, who had won the Nariz de Oro award in 2004 (a prestigious Spanish wine competition), a Galician wine entrepreneur, and a skilful master distiller, all started dreaming about the idea of producing a true Galician gin, using the best ingredients from their land, that would be different from all other gin brands.

And so, after many trials, they found the perfect formula to capture the best essence of Galicia, giving rise to what nowadays is the Nordés recipe.
